Integer triangle rational formula_14 where formula_15 reduces the generated Heronian triangle to its primitive and formula_16 scales up this primitive to the required size. A Pythagorean triangle is right angled and Heronian. Its three integer sides are known as a Pythagorean triple or Pythagorean triplet or Pythagorean triad. All Pythagorean triples formula_17 with hypotenuse formula_18 which are primitive (the sides having no common factor) can be generated by where "m" and "n" are coprime integers and one of them is even with "m" > "n". Every even number greater than 2 can be the leg of a Pythagorean triangle (not necessarily primitive)
Altitude (triangle) barycentric coordinates are zero for a vertex point, the barycentric coordinates given for the orthocenter show that the orthocenter is in an acute triangle's interior, on the right-angled vertex of a right triangle, and exterior to an obtuse triangle. In the complex plane, let the points and represent the numbers formula_5, formula_6 and, respectively, formula_7 and assume that the circumcenter of triangle is located at the origin of the plane. Then, the complex number is represented by the point , namely the orthocenter of triangle . From this, the following characterizations of the orthocenter by means of free vectors can
