58-63: Floating-point equality for type classification — fine in practice, fragile in principle.
a == bondoublewill work as long as both sides come fromdouble.TryParseof textually-identical strings (the typical case here), but any future code path that produces these values via arithmetic (e.g., scaling, conversions) will silently misclassify. Consider an explicit tolerance to make the intent robust.♻️ Proposed refactor

🌐 Web query:
.NET double.TryParse default culture CurrentCulture vs InvariantCulture decimal separator
💡 Result:
In .NET, double.TryParse uses the current culture (Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture or CultureInfo.CurrentCulture) by default for overloads without an IFormatProvider parameter. This culture determines the decimal separator (NumberFormatInfo.NumberDecimalSeparator). Cultures like en-US use '.' (dot), while many European cultures (e.g., de-DE, fr-FR) use ',' (comma). For the full overload double.TryParse(string s, NumberStyles style, IFormatProvider provider, out double result): - If provider is null or does not provide a NumberFormatInfo, it falls back to the current culture's NumberFormatInfo.CurrentInfo. - CultureInfo.CurrentCulture uses the system's/thread's current culture settings, so decimal separator varies (e.g., ',' in German). - CultureInfo.InvariantCulture always uses '.' as the decimal separator (NumberFormatInfo.InvariantInfo.NumberDecimalSeparator = "."), making it culture-insensitive and suitable for fixed-format parsing like "1.23". Examples: - In en-US (current culture, decimal sep='.'): double.TryParse("1.23", out d) succeeds; "1,23" fails. - In de-DE (current culture, decimal sep=','): double.TryParse("1,23", out d) succeeds; "1.23" fails or misparses. - With InvariantCulture: double.TryParse("1.23", NumberStyles.Any, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out d) succeeds regardless of system culture; "1,23" fails. To parse culture-agnostically with dot separator, always specify CultureInfo.InvariantCulture. Official docs confirm this behavior across .NET versions (NET 6+). Code snippet for robust parsing: double result; bool parsed = double.TryParse(input, NumberStyles.Float | NumberStyles.AllowThousands, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out result);

Culture-sensitive double.TryParse is inconsistent with the '.'-only keypress filter.
double.TryParse(string, out double) uses CultureInfo.CurrentCulture. On systems whose decimal separator is , (e.g., de-DE, fr-FR), "2.5" typed by the user (and allowed by NumericTextBox_KeyPress, which only permits '.') will fail to parse and be reported as "invalid number", while "2,5" would be needed for parsing but is rejected by the keypress filter. Pick one convention end-to-end — recommend invariant culture for both input and parsing so the UI behaves the same on every locale.

double.TryParse will successfully parse strings like NaN/Infinity (e.g., via paste). Because comparisons with NaN are always false, this can slip through validation, set drawTriangle = true, and later produce NaN/invalid coordinates during pictureBox1_Paint (potential runtime exceptions). Add an explicit finite-number check after parsing (reject when double.IsNaN(x) or double.IsInfinity(x) for any side) and return with a validation message.

Input filtering only allows . as a decimal separator, but double.TryParse uses the current culture by default. In locales that use , as the decimal separator, users won't be able to type valid decimals (and parsing behavior may differ from what the UI allows). Consider using the current culture’s decimal separator in the KeyPress filter and parsing with an explicit culture/NumberStyles so both sides match.
