A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry. The corners, also called Vertex (geometry), ''vertices'', are zero-dimensional point (geometry), points while the sides connecting them, also called Edge (geometry), ''edges'', are one-dimensional line segments. A triangle has three internal angles, each one bounded by a pair of adjacent edges; the sum of angles of a triangle always equals a straight angle (180 degrees or π radians). The triangle is a plane figure and its interior is a planar region. Sometimes an arbitrary edge is chosen to be the base (geometry), ''base'', in which case the opposite vertex is called the apex (geometry), ''apex''; the shortest segment between the base and apex is the height (triangle), ''height''. The area of a triangle equals one-half the product of height and base length. In Euclidean geometry, any two points determine a unique line segment situated within a unique straight line, and any three ...

It conveys a message promoting, and aiming to market, a product, service or idea. Advertisers and marketers may refer to television commercials as TVCs.

Advertisements of this type have promoted a wide variety of goods, services, and ideas ever since the early days of the history of television. The viewership of television programming, as measured by companies such as Nielsen Media Research in the United States, or BARB in the UK, is often used as a metric for television advertisement placement, and consequently, for the rates which broadcasters charge to advertisers to air within a given netw ...
