How can one place the description/symbol "Alpha 40°" into the corner of a triangle drawn by Graphics/Triangle as it can be seen in the texts and drawings of Mathworld for example like one can see if he is looking for "Triangle"? Thanks a lot in advance.

  • $\begingroup$ Since you can input Unicode characters in Mathematica (e.g. FromCharacterCode[8736] for you case), your question is how to place text in a given position. You can look up the hep for Epilog. $\endgroup$

For the sake of an answer (from the comment by Hector Aug 21 '16 at 19:45):

Graphics[{Line[{{1, 0}, {0, 0}, {0, 1}, {1, 0}}], 
  Text[Style[
    FromCharacterCode[8736] <> "45" <> FromCharacterCode[176], 
    FontColor -> Blue, FontSize -> 18], {.90, 0.03}]}]
