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)
Incircle and excircles of a triangle has area formula_39. Similarly, formula_40 has area formula_41 and formula_42 has area formula_43. Since these three triangles decompose formula_35, we see that the area formula_45 is: where formula_48 is the area of formula_35 and formula_50 is its semiperimeter. For an alternative formula, consider formula_51. This is a right-angled triangle with one side equal to "r" and the other side equal to formula_52. The same is true for formula_53. The large triangle is composed of 6 such triangles and the total area is: The Gergonne triangle (of "ABC") is defined by the 3 touchpoints of the incircle on the 3 sides.
