Abstract
In research, triangulation refers to the use of various datasets, methodologies, theories, and/or investigators to answer a research question. This work highlighted some of the advantages of triangulation in qualitative and quantitative research. It shows that triangulation is helpful in the development of complementary analysis which can facilitate the completeness of a research and help develop an insight.
