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 is concerned with the problem of finding two sets of integers, $\{a_1, a_2, \ldots$, $a_m\}$ and $\{b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_n\}$, such that all the $mn$ sums $a_i+b_j, i=1, \ldots, m, j=1, \ldots, n$, are perfect squares. A method is…
Richard Guy asked the following question: can we find a triangle with rational sides, medians, and area? Such a triangle is called a \emph{perfect triangle} and no example has been found to date. It is widely believed that such a triangle…
In this paper we first study the isoperimetric problem in the case of integer triangles, as well as Alcuin's sequence and how it relates to the number of different integer triangles with a given perimeter. We then present and compare two…
T. Keleti asked, whether the ratio of the perimeter and the area of a finite union of unit squares is always at most 4. In this paper we present an example where the ratio is greater than 4. We also answer the analogous question for regular…
By Fermat's method, we show that there are infinitely many Heron triangle and $\theta$-integral rhombus pairs with a common area and a common perimeter. Moreover, we prove that there does not exist any integral isosceles triangle and…
A Heron triangle is a triangle whose side lengths and area are integers. Two Heron triangles are amicable if the perimeter of one is the area of the other. We show, using elementary techniques, that there is only one pair of amicable Heron…
A well-known conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many primes $p$ for which $p - 1$ is a perfect square. We obtain upper and lower bounds of matching order on the number of pairs of distinct primes $p,q \le x$ for which $(p - 1)(q -…

We study the problem of perfect tiling in the plane and exploring the possibility of tiling a rectangle using integral distinct squares. Assume a set of distinguishable squares (or equivalently a set of distinct natural numbers) is given,…
We study the existence of equilateral triangles of given side lengths and with integer coordinates in dimension three. We show that such a triangle exists if and only if their side lengths are of the form $\sqrt{2(m^2-mn+n^2)}$ for some…
