Clearly designed to shield people from sun and rain. But isn't rectangular more sensible? Triangles have those narrow corners in three places where they shield virtually nothing.

Rectangular awnings are stodgy and boring. Triangular awnings are
more to the taste of design professionals.

You're not wrong about their utility.

Why would you say a triangle looks better than a rectangle? They're just two different shapes.
