    The theorems of Urquhart and Steiner-Lehmus in the Poincaré ball model of hyperbolic geometry (English)
    0 references
    Results of \textit{A. A. Ungar} from [Comput. Math. Appl. 41, 135--147 (2001; Zbl 0988.51017)] are used in translating some theorems in Euclidean geometry to corresponding ones in hyperbolic geometry. Those are the Breusch's lemma, the Urquhart's theorem and the Steiner--Lehmus theorem. Since Ungar used Möbius gyrovector spaces for the introduction of the hyperbolic trigonometry, these theorems are presented in the Poincaré ball model of hyperbolic geometry.
