Idea

A triangle of morphisms

        top
     x ----> y
      \     /
  left \   / right
        ∨ ∨
         z

in a set-magmoid C is said to commute if there is an identification between:

  left = right ∘ top.

Such a identification is called the coherence of the commuting triangle.

Definitions

  {l1 l2 : Level} (C : Set-Magmoid l1 l2)
  {x y z : obj-Set-Magmoid C}

  (left : hom-Set-Magmoid C x z)
  (right : hom-Set-Magmoid C y z)
