After the introduction, in section 2 we state the well known parametric formulas that describe the entire family of Pythagorean triples. In section 3, we list four well known results from number theory, used later in the paper. in section…
This article reports the occurrence of binary quadratic forms in primitive Pythagorean triangles and their geometric interpretation. In addition to the well-known fact that the hypotenuse, z, of a right triangle, with sides of integral…
In the early part of the paper, various geometrical formulas are derived. Then, at some point in the paper, the concept of a Pythagorean rational is introduced. A Pythagorean rational is a rational number which is the ratio of two integers…
Say that $(x, y, z)$ is a positive primitive integral Pythagorean triple if $x, y, z$ are positive integers without common factors satisfying $x^2 + y^2 = z^2$. An old theorem of Berggren gives three integral invertible linear…
It is well-known that pythagorean triples can be represented by points of the unit circle with rational coordinates. These points form an abelian group, and we describe its structure. This structural description yields, almost immediately,…
The method of generating Pythagorean triples is known for about 2000 years. Though the classical formulas produce all primitive triples they do not generate all possible triples, especially non-primitive triples. This paper presents a…
The general formulas for finding the quantity of all primitive and nonprimitive triples generated by the given number x have been proposed. Also the formulas for finding the complete quantity of the representations of the integers as a…
This article highlights interactions of diverse areas: the Heron formula for the area of a triangle, the Descartes circle equation, and right triangles with integer or rational sides. New and old results are synthesized. We show that every…
A pair $(a, b)$ of positive integers is a pythagorean pair if $a^2 + b^2 = \Box$ (i.e., $a^2 + b^2$ is a square). A pythagorean pair $(a, b)$ is called a double-pythapotent pair if there is another pythagorean pair $(k,l)$ such that…
A Pythagorean triple is a triple of positive integers $(x,y,z)$ such that $x^2+y^2=z^2$. If $x,y$ are coprime and $x$ is odd, then it is called a primitive Pythagorean triple. Berggren showed that every primitive Pythagorean triple can be…
There are four characteristic circles for each triangle on a plane. All for are tangential to the three straight lines containing the triangles' three sides. Three are exterior circles, the fourth is the in-circle. When the triangle is…
This paper presents an additional class of regular polyhedra--envelope polyhedra--made of regular polygons, where the arrangement of polygons (creating a single surface) around each vertex is identical; but dihedral angles between faces…
In 1934 B. Berggren first discovered the surprising result that every Pythagorean triplet is the pre product of the triplet (3, 4, 5) presented as a column by a product of three matrices, that every triplet is obtained in this manner…
A primitive Heron triangle is a triangle with integral sides and integral area where the greatest common divisor of the lengths of its sides is $1$. By utilizing the theory of elliptic curves, we prove that there exist infinitely many…
A polygonal complex in euclidean 3-space is a discrete polyhedron-like structure with finite or infinite polygons as faces and finite graphs as vertex-figures, such that a fixed number r of faces surround each edge. It is said to be regular…
Pythagorean triples are the positive integer solutions to the Pythagoras equation for right triangles, a2+b2 = c2. They have been studied for many years, many centuries in fact. In this short paper we present a method for computing…
To represent positive integers by regular patterns on a plane or in three-dimensional space may be traced back to the Pythagoreans. The aim of the present article is to explore the possibility of extending the representation framework for…
This paper is aimed at presenting a systematic survey of the existing now different formulations for the problem of projection of the origin of the Euclidean space onto the convex polyhedron (PPOCP). In the present paper, there are…
The paper presents a systematic construction of primitive Pythagorean triples. The order of enumeration on the set of primitive Pythagorean triples is defined. The order is based on the representation of a primitive Pythagorean triple by…
A polyhedron is box-integer if its intersection with any integer box $\{\ell\leq x \leq u\}$ is integer. We define principally box-integer polyhedra to be the polyhedra $P$ such that $kP$ is box-integer whenever $kP$ is integer. We…
