| An '''integer triangle''' or '''integral triangle''' is a [[triangle]] all of whose sides have lengths that are integers. A '''rational triangle''' can be defined as one having all sides with rational length; any such rational triangle can be integrally rescaled (can have all sides multiplied by the same integer, namely a common multiple of their denominators) to obtain an integer triangle, so there is no substantive difference between integer triangles and rational triangles in this sense. Note however, that other definitions of the term "rational triangle" also exist: In 1914 Carmichael<ref>Carmichael, R. D., 1914, ''Diophantine Analysis'', pp.11-13; in R. D. Carmichael, 1959, ''The Theory of Numbers and Diophantine Analysis'', Dover.</ref> used the term in the sense that we today use the term [[Heronian triangle]]; Somos<ref name=Somos>Somos, M., "Rational triangles," http://grail.csuohio.edu/~somos/rattri.html</ref> uses it to refer to triangles whose ratios of sides are rational; Conway and Guy <ref>Conway, J. H., and Guy, R. K., "The only rational triangle," in ''The Book of Numbers'', 1996, Springer-Verlag, pp.201 and 228-239.</ref> define a rational triangle as one with rational sides and rational angles measured in degrees—in which case the only rational triangle is the rational-sided equilateral triangle.

| There are few general properties for an integer triangle (Section 1 below). All other sections refer to classes of integer triangles with specific properties.
| |
| | |
| ==General properties for an integer triangle==
| |
| | |
| ===Integer triangles with given perimeter===
| |
| Any triple of positive integers can serve as the side lengths of an integer triangle as long as it satisfies the triangle inequality: the longest side is shorter than the sum of the other two sides. Each such triple defines an integer triangle that is unique up to congruence. So the number of integer triangles (up to congruence) with perimeter ''p'' is the number of [[Partition (number theory)|partitions]] of ''p'' into three positive parts that satisfy the triangle inequality. This is the integer closest to {{frac|''p''<sup>2</sup>|48|}} when ''p'' is even and to {{frac|(''p'' + 3)<sup>2</sup>|48|}} when ''p'' is odd.<ref name=Jenkyns>Tom Jenkyns and Eric Muller, Triangular Triples from Ceilings to Floors, American Mathematical Monthly 107:7 (August 2000) 634-639</ref><ref>Ross Honsberger, ''Mathematical Gems III'', pp 39-37</ref> It also means that the number of integer triangles with even numbered perimeters ''p'' = 2''n'' is the same as the number of integer triangles with odd numbered perimeters ''p'' = 2''n'' - 3. Thus there is no integer triangle with perimeter 1, 2 or 4, one with perimeter 3, 5, 6 or 8, and two with perimeter 7 or 10. The sequence of the number of integer triangles with perimeter ''p'', starting at ''p'' = 1, is:
| |
| | |
| :0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 1, 3, 2, 4, 3, 5, 4, 7, 5, 8, 7, 10, 8 ... {{OEIS|A005044}}
| |
| | |
| ===Integer triangles with given largest side===
| |
| The number of integer triangles (up to congruence) with given largest side ''c'' and integer triple (''a'', ''b'', ''c'') is the number of integer triples such that ''a'' + ''b'' > ''c'' and ''a'' ≤ ''b'' ≤ ''c''. This is the integer value Ceiling[{{frac|(''c'' + 1)|2}}] * Floor[{{frac|(''c'' + 1)|2}}].<ref name=Jenkyns/> It also means that the number of integer triangles with greatest side ''c'' exceeds the number of integer triangles with greatest side ''c''−2 by ''c''. The sequence of the number of non-congruent integer triangles with largest side ''c'', starting at ''c'' = 1, is:
| |
| :1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 20, 25, 30, 36, 42, 49, 56, 64, 72, 81, 90 ... {{OEIS|A002620}}
| |
| | |
| ===Area of an integer triangle===
| |
| By [[Heron's formula]], if ''T'' is the area of a triangle whose sides have lengths ''a'', ''b'', and ''c'' then
| |
| | |
| :<math>4T = \sqrt{(a+b+c)(a+b-c)(a-b+c)(-a+b+c)}.</math>
| |
| | |
| Since all the terms under the [[square root|radical]] on the right side of the formula are integers it follows that all integer triangles must have an integer value of ''16T<sup>2</sup>''.
| |
| | |
| ===Angles of an integer triangle===
| |
| | |
| By the [[law of cosines]], every [[angle]] of an integer triangle has a [[rational number|rational]] [[cosine]].
| |
| | |
| If the angles of any triangle form an arithmetic progression then one of its angles must be 60°.<ref name=Zelator/> For integer triangles the remaining angles must also have rational cosines and a method of generating such triangles is given below. However, apart from the trivial case of an equilateral triangle there are no integer triangles whose angles form either a geometric or harmonic progression. This is because such angles have to be rational angles of the form {{frac|πp|q|}} with rational 0 < {{frac|p|q|}} < 1. But all the angles of integer triangles must have rational cosines and this will occur only when {{frac|p|q|}} = {{frac|3|}} <ref>{{citation |first=Jörg |last=Jahnel |title=When is the (Co)Sine of a Rational Angle equal to a rational number? |url=http://arxiv.org/pdf/1006.2938v1.pdf |year=2010 |publisher=Cornell Univ. archive }}</ref>{{rp|p.2}} i.e. the integer triangle is equilateral.
| |
| | |
| ===Side split by an altitude===
| |
| | |
| Any [[Altitude (triangle)|altitude]] dropped from a vertex onto an opposite side or its extension will split that side or its extension into rational lengths.

| |
| | |
| A Heronian triangle, also known as a '''Heron triangle''' or a '''Hero triangle''', is a triangle with integer sides and integer area. Every Heronian triangle has sides proportional to<ref>Carmichael, R. D. ''The Theory of Numbers and Diophantine Analysis''. New York: Dover, 1952.</ref>

| :<math>\gcd{(m,n,k)}=1 \, </math>
| |
| :<math>mn > k^2 \ge m^2n/(2m+n) \, </math>
| |

| | |
| The proportionality factor is generally a rational <math>\frac{p}{q}</math> where <math>q=\gcd{(a,b,c)}</math> reduces the generated Heronian triangle to its primitive and <math>p</math> scales up this primitive to the required size.

| ===Properties of Heronian triangles===
| |
| | |
| *The perimeter of a Heronian triangle is always an even number.<ref name=Friche>{{Cite journal|title=On Heron Simplices and Integer Embedding|last=Friche|first=Jan|journal=Ernst-Moritz-Arndt Universät Greiswald Publication, 2 Jan. 2002|url=http://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0112239.pdf}}</ref> Thus every Heronian triangle has an odd number of sides of even length,<ref name=Buchholz1/>{{rp|p.3}} and every primitive Heronian triangle has exactly one even side.
| |
| | |
| *The area of a Heronian triangle is always divisible by 6.<ref name=Friche/>
| |
| | |
| *All the altitudes of a Heronian triangle are rational.<ref name=Somos/> This can be seen from the fact that the area of a triangle is one-half of one side times its altitude from that side, and a Heronian triangle has integer sides and area. Some Heronian triangles have three non-integer altitudes, for example the acute (15, 34, 35) with area 252 and the obtuse (5, 29, 30) with area 72. Any Heronian triangle with one or more non-integer altitudes can be scaled up by a factor equalling the least common multiple of the altitudes' denominators in order to obtain a [[Similarity (geometry)|similar]] Heronian triangle with three integer altitudes.
| |
| | |
| *Heronian triangles that have no integer altitude ([[Heronian triangle#Properties|in-decomposable]]) have sides that are all divisible by primes of the form 4''k''+1.<ref>{{citation |first=Paul |last=Yiu |title=Heron triangles which cannot be decomposed into two integer right triangles |url=http://math.fau.edu/yiu/Southern080216.pdf |year=2008 |publisher=41st Meeting of Florida Section of Mathematical Association of America }}</ref>{{rp|p.40}}
| |
| | |
| *All the [[Bisection#Perpendicular bisectors|interior perpendicular bisectors]] of a Heronian triangle are rational: For any triangle these are given by <math>p_a=\tfrac{2aT}{a^2+b^2-c^2},</math> <math>p_b=\tfrac{2bT}{a^2+b^2-c^2},</math> and <math>p_c=\tfrac{2cT}{a^2-b^2+c^2},</math> where the sides are <math>a \ge b \ge c</math> and the area is <math>T;</math><ref>Mitchell, Douglas W. (2013), "Perpendicular Bisectors of Triangle Sides", ''Forum Geometricorum'' 13, 53-59: Theorem 2.</ref> in a Heronian triangle all of ''a'', ''b'', ''c'', and ''T'' are integers.
| |
| | |
| *There are no equilateral Heronian triangles.<ref name=Somos/>
| |
| | |
| *There are no Heronian triangles with a side length of either 1 or 2.<ref name=Carlson>{{Cite journal|title=Determination of Heronian triangles|last=Carlson|first=John R.|journal=San Diego State College (1970)|url=http://www.fq.math.ca/Scanned/8-5/carlson-a.pdf}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| *There exist an infinite number of primitive Heronian triangles with one side length equal to ''a'' provided that ''a >'' 2.<ref name=Carlson/>
| |
| | |
| *There are no Heronian triangles whose side lengths form a [[geometric progression]].<ref name=Buchholz>{{Cite journal|title=Heron Quadrilaterals with sides in Arithmetic or Geometric progression|last=Buchholz|first=R. H.|last2=MacDougall|first2=J. A.|journal=Bull. Austral. Math. Soc. pp:263-269; Vol. 59 (1999)|url=http://journals.cambridge.org/article_S0004972700032883}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| *Every angle of a Heronian triangle has a rational sine. This follows from the area formula ''Area'' = (1/2)''ab'' sin ''C'', in which the area and the sides ''a'' and ''b'' are integers (and equivalently for the other angles).
| |
| | |
| *There are no Heronian triangles whose three internal angles form an arithmetic progression. This is because at least one angle has to be 60°, which does not have a rational sine.<ref name=Zelator/>
| |
| | |
| *Any square inscribed in a Heronian triangle has rational sides: For a general triangle the [[Triangle#Figures inscribed in a triangle|inscribed square]] on side of length ''a'' has length <math>\tfrac{2Ta}{a^2+2T}</math> where ''T'' is the triangle's area;<ref>Bailey, Herbert, and DeTemple, Duane, "Squares inscribed in angles and triangles", ''[[Mathematics Magazine]]'' 71(4), 1998, 278–284.</ref> in a Heronian triangle, both ''T'' and ''a'' are integers.
| |
| | |
| *Every Heronian triangle has a rational [[inradius]] (radius of its inscribed circle): For a general triangle the inradius is the ratio of the area to half the perimeter, and both of these are rational in a Heronian triangle.
| |
| | |
| *Every Heronian triangle has a rational [[Circumscribed circle#Triangles|circumradius]] (the radius of its circumscribed circle): For a general triangle the circumradius equals one-fourth the product of the sides divided by the area; in a Heronian triangle the sides and area are integers.

| | |
| ==Integer triangles in a 2D lattice==
| |
| | |
| A 2D [[Lattice graph|lattice]] is a regular array of isolated points where if any one point is chosen as the [[Cartesian coordinate system|Cartesian origin]] (0, 0), then all the other points are at (''x, y'') where ''x'' and ''y'' range over all positive and negative integers. A lattice triangle is any triangle drawn within a 2D lattice such that all vertices lie on lattice points. By [[Pick's theorem]] a lattice triangle has a rational area that is either an integer or has a denominator of 2. If the lattice triangle has integer sides then it is Heronian with integer area.<ref name=Buchholz1>{{citation |last=Buchholz |first=R. H. |last2=MacDougall |first2=J. A. |title=Cyclic Polygons with Rational Sides and Area |url=http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.169.6336&rep=rep1&type=pdf |year=2001 |page=3 |publisher=CiteSeerX Penn State University }}</ref>
| |
| | |
| Furthermore it has been proved that all Heronian triangles can be drawn as lattice triangles.<ref>{{citation |last=Marshall |first=Susan H. |last2=Perlis |first2=Alexander R. |title=Heronian tetrahedra are lattice tetrahedra |url=http://math.arizona.edu/~aprl/publications/latticetetrahedra/marshallperlis_latticetetrahedra_26Mar2012.pdf |year=2012 |page=2 |publisher=University of Arizona}}</ref> Consequently it can be stated that an integer triangle is Heronian if and only if it can be drawn as a lattice triangle.

| ====Integer triangles with a 60° angle (angles in arithmetic progression)====
| |
| | |
| All integer triangles with a 60° angle have their angles in an arithmetic progression. All such triangles are proportional to:<ref name=Zelator>[http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/0803/0803.3778.pdf Zelator, K., "Triangle Angles and Sides in Progression and the diophantine equation x<sup>2</sup>+3y<sup>2</sup>=z<sup>2</sup>," ''Cornell Univ. archive'', 2008]</ref>

| |
| | |
| with coprime integers ''m'', ''n'' and 1 ≤ ''n'' ≤ ''m'' or 3''m'' ≤ ''n''. From here, all primitive solutions can be obtained by dividing ''a'', ''b'', and ''c'' by their greatest common divisor.
| |
| | |
| Integer triangles with a 60° angle can also be generated by<ref>Gilder, J., Integer-sided triangles with an angle of 60°," ''Mathematical Gazette'' 66, December 1982, 261 266</ref>

| |
| | |
| with coprime integers ''m'', ''n'' with 0 < ''n'' < ''m'' (the angle of 60° is opposite to the side of length ''a''). From here, all primitive solutions can be obtained by dividing ''a'', ''b'', and ''c'' by their greatest common divisor (e.g. an equilateral triangle solution is obtained by taking ''m'' = 2 and ''n'' = 1, but this produces ''a'' = ''b'' = ''c'' = 3, which is not a primitive solution).

| |
| | |
| with coprime integers ''m'', ''n'' with 0 < ''n'' < ''m'' (the angle of 120° is opposite to the side of length ''a''). From here, all primitive solutions can be obtained by dividing ''a'', ''b'', and ''c'' by their greatest common divisor (e.g. by taking ''m'' = 4 and ''n'' = 1, one obtains ''a'' = 21, ''b'' = 9 and ''c'' = 15, which is not a primitive solution, but leads to the primitive solution ''a'' = 7, ''b'' = 3, and ''c'' = 5 which, up to order, can be obtained with the values ''m'' = 2 and ''n'' = 1).
