On triangulated surfaces {orientable surface}, triangles can orient so sides common to two triangles orient oppositely on two triangles. Spheres are orientable surfaces. Projective planes are not orientable surfaces. If and only if two orientable closed surfaces have same genus, surfaces are homeomorphic.
