Right triangle then with equality only in the isosceles case. If segments of lengths "p" and "q" emanating from vertex "C" trisect the hypotenuse into segments of length "c"/3, then The right triangle is the only triangle having two, rather than one or three, distinct inscribed squares. Let "h" and "k" ("h" > "k") be the sides of the two inscribed squares in a right triangle with hypotenuse "c". Then These sides and the incircle radius "r" are related by a similar formula: The perimeter of a right triangle equals the sum of the radii of the incircle and the three excircles:
Special right triangle within a regular icosahedron of side length "c": the shortest line segment from any vertex "V" to the plane of its five neighbors has length "a", and the endpoints of this line segment together with any of the neighbors of "V" form the vertices of a right triangle with sides "a", "b", and "c". Special right triangle A special right triangle is a right triangle with some regular feature that makes calculations on the triangle easier, or for which simple formulas exist. For example, a right triangle may have angles that form simple relationships, such as 45°–45°–90°. This is called
