Let be the upper half-plane with a hyperbolic metric . Prove that every hyperbolic circle in is also a Euclidean circle. Is the centre of as a hyperbolic circle always the same point as the centre of as a Euclidean circle? Give a proof or counterexample as appropriate.
Let and be two hyperbolic triangles and denote the hyperbolic lengths of their sides by and , respectively. Show that if and , then there is a hyperbolic isometry taking to . Is there always such an isometry if instead the triangles have one angle the same and Justify your answer.
[Standard results on hyperbolic isometries may be assumed, provided they are clearly stated.]
