triangularity

Having three angles

Triangularity is the quality of having three sides or angles, or of being arranged in a triangle.

The term appears in geometry and in descriptions of relationships involving three parties: the triangularity of Cold War diplomacy between the US, China, and the Soviet Union.

It can also describe the angular quality of a face or design.
