610.10 Structural Functions

610.11 Triangulation is fundamental to structure, but it takes a plurality of positive and negative behaviors to make a structure. For example:

always and only coexisting push and pull (compression and tension);

always and only coexisting concave and convex;

always and only coexisting angles and edges;

always and only coexisting torque and countertorque;

always and only coexisting insideness and outsideness;

always and only coexisting axial rotation poles;

always and only coexisting conceptuality and nonconceptuality;

always and only coexisting temporal experience and eternal conceptuality.

608.12 If we want to have a structure, we have to have triangles. To have a structural system requires a minimum of four triangles. The tetrahedron is the simplest structure.

608.13 Every triangle has two faces: obverse and reverse. Every structural system has omni-intertriangulated division of Universe into insideness and outsideness.
