The area of a hyperbolic triangle with a vertex at infinity #

idealRegion a b is the region of ℍ above the unit semicircle and between the vertical lines re = a and re = b. For -1 ≤ a ≤ b ≤ 1 it is a hyperbolic triangle with vertices a + i √(1 - a²), b + i √(1 - b²) and the point at infinity, and its invariant area is arccos a - arccos b (volume_idealRegion); this is the base case of the Gauss–Bonnet formula, in which the two finite angles are arccos (-a) and arccos b. For a = -1 (respectively b = 1) the left (respectively right) vertex is the ideal point -1 (respectively 1), with angle 0; in particular the ideal triangle with vertices -1, 1 and ∞ has area π (volume_idealRegion_neg_one_one). Vertical lines are null (volume_setOf_re_eq).

idealRegionAbove c r a b is the same region for the semicircle of centre c and radius r > 0, obtained from idealRegion by the affine map z ↦ r z + c (idealRegionAbove_eq_smul); its area is the same formula in the rescaled endpoints when c - r ≤ a ≤ b ≤ c + r (volume_idealRegionAbove). The two one-variable integrals of the computation are TauCeti.lintegral_Ioi_inv_sq and TauCeti.integral_one_div_sqrt_one_sub_sq.

    The area of a hyperbolic triangle with a vertex at infinity, in normal form: the region above the unit semicircle between the verticals re = a and re = b has invariant area arccos a - arccos b, for -1 ≤ a ≤ b ≤ 1.
