angular defect

English

Noun

angular defect (plural angular defects)

(geometry, non-Euclidean geometry) The amount by which the total of the interior angles of a triangle is less than 180° (π radians); the amount by which the total of the internal angles of a polygon is less than what would be expected on the Euclidean plane.

Usage notes

The triangular/polygonal angular defect is zero on the Euclidean plane, but may, for example, be positive (meaning a deficit) in hyperbolic spaces or negative (an excess) in spherical geometry.

In Euclidean space, the vertex angular defect is typically positive, but may be negative when the vertex is a saddle point, as may be the case on a toroidal polyhedron.

Synonyms

(amount by which the total of the interior angles of a polygon is less than on the Euclidean plane): angular deficiency, angular deficit
(amount by which the total of the total of the angles around a vertex of a polyhedron is less than 360°): angular deficiency, angular deficit
(angular displacement of tooth): vertical defect
