Abstract
A positive integer is called a -congruent number if there is a triangle with sides and for which the angle between and is equal to and its area is , where , and are relatively prime integers. The case refers to the classical congruent numbers. It is known that the problem of classifying -congruent numbers is related to the existence of rational points on the elliptic curve . In this paper, we deal with a variant of the congruent number problem where the cosine of a fixed angle is .
