The Greatest Visual Triangle in TTTTA or Finding Pythagoras and Fibonacci, again

WD Gann proves the meaning of the words he writes in "The Tunnel Thru the Air" with math and geometry (see HERE for a simple example of 'proof by math') often created by acrostic and telestic encoded words.  Ambiguous words, subjective language; inadequate to convey clear meaning.  The two most meaningful such proofs, to me, are the Visual Triangle of which this post is concerned and the Conceptual Triangle of Robert Gordon's 7 days described in many other posts of that wording.

Here is what I characterize as the Greatest Visual Triangle (GVT) found on pages 68 through 71 of TTTTA:

Now the background.  That triangle begins on page 68 with point A and having a center point on line 2693 of the book:

The acrostic word "Tao" defines point A in the GVT and is defined by the first letter of the lines 2692, 2693 and 2694, line 2693, the center point for measurement purposes.  "Tao" had long intrigued me until I used an alternate meaning, 'path,' and connected it with two other words found on pages 69 and 71.

On page 71 and having a center point on line 2853 of the book I found the word "WAR" in all caps:

I will call that point C of the GVT.

I now have Point A, "Path" and Point C, "WAR" and I just knew there had to be an acrostic or telestic word in between…somewhere….that spelled "to."  So, on a hunch, I took the difference in center points.  There are 160 lines between the center points of A and C so I'd have to find "to" on about line (2693 + 160 X .5=) 2753….and, yes, that is what I found:

I will say the black line that bisects the acrostic word "to" defines points B on the right and D on the left.  So now we have points A, B and C of a perfect isosceles triangle (the red triangle) and the comprising right triangles of ADB and CDB formed by the black line DB.  Take a moment to reflect on the first illustration of the complete triangle above.

Now let's do some Pythagorean math, especially considering a subtext of this post is Pythagoras of Samos.  Count the letters on the two lines comprising the acrostic word "to," specifically, lines 2772 and 2773.  Including spaces between words, two spaces between sentences and one space for the period on line 2773 both of those lines count 60:

You may begin to see where I am going.  There are 160 vertical spaces to the isosceles triangle between points A and C so there are 80 vertical spaces between A and D.  The comprising right triangles have, therefore, legs of 60 and 80.  For a person that understands the Pythagoras' 3-4-5 triangle, you have 60, 80, 100….proportions of the triangle comprised of the Pythagorean arithmetic progression:

Obviously, Mr. Gann designed a PERFECT Pythagorean 3-4-5 triangle (aka 'arithmetic progression triangle') spanning pages 68 to 71.  You can't 'see' it unless you do the math.

I feel sure there is a Kepler or geometric progression right triangle in TTTTA as well but have not pursued it as yet.  Hmmm, a Kepler triangle would have sides of 1, sqrt(Phi) and Phi.  Phi, Fibonacci aka Leonardo de Pisa...de Pisa.

We now know the sides of the isosceles triangle because we solved the component right triangles.  The isosceles triangle is AC=160, AB=100 and BC=100.  No, it's not a Kepler right triangle, but Mr. de Pisa is in the midst of it.  After all, 160 is one of the earliest iterations of Phi in the Fibonacci sequence; it is 8 divided by 5.  And two sides of 100.  In math it spells "Fibonacci" to me.  But maybe I'm stretching it.  Or might I find Mr. de Pisa in an acrostic or telestic word?  Yes I did…you'll find Mr. de Pisa highlighted in blue in the insert above "WAR" ….if you'd been attentive:

There is so much in these four pages; there's the Jonas triangle (see HERE) defined by the four instances of the word, Jonas, the math of 3 days and 3 nights (3+3 and 3*3), the sixth prophecy of the 911 tragedy dependent on 69 of that page 69….  Too much to cover in this, already too long, post.

It is entirely fitting that Mr. Gann crowned those meaningful pages with one of the two most important triangles, in my estimation, to be found in TTTTA.  It might be further meaningful for one to dwell on the plain wording of those four pages given the effort and, one would think, the commensurate emphasis that Mr. Gann placed on those pages.

Can there be any doubt of the encoding of this triangle, of the intent of the author?
