Right triangle and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. This is because the right triangle's orthocenter, the intersection of its altitudes, falls on the right-angled vertex while its circumcenter, the intersection of its perpendicular bisectors of sides, falls on the midpoint of the hypotenuse. In any right triangle the diameter of the incircle is less than half the hypotenuse, and more strongly it is less than or equal to the hypotenuse times formula_44 In a right triangle with legs "a", "b" and hypotenuse "c", with equality only in the isosceles case. If the altitude from the hypotenuse is denoted "h",
Heronian triangle triangles with these sidelengths, and joins them together along the sides of length "a", to obtain a triangle with integer side lengths "c", "e", and "b" + "d", and with area If "a" is even then the area "A" is an integer. Less obviously, if "a" is odd then "A" is still an integer, as "b" and "d" must both be even, making "b"+"d" even too. Some Heronian triangles cannot be obtained by joining together two right-angled triangles with integer sides as described above. For example, a 5, 29, 30 Heronian triangle with area 72 cannot be constructed from two
