Triangulation :
Triangulation 
is an advanced chess endgame technique a player maneuvers their king (or queen) in a triangular path (three moves) to return to the original position while forcing the opponent to move, effectively losing a tempo. This creates a "zugzwang" situation, forcing the opponent to move from a stable position to a losing one.

Key Aspects of Triangulation : Purpose: To gain the "opposition" and force the opponent to move first in a critical position.
Context: Used primarily in king and pawn endgames, or king and queen endings, when one side has more maneuverability.
The Mechanism: If you are in a winning position but it is your turn and moving allows a draw, you use three moves to return to that same spot—now with the opponent to move.
Alternative: When direct king advancement is blocked, triangulation acts as a waiting move to break through.
