Fermat's right triangle theorem is, by the Pythagorean theorem, they would form two integer-sided right triangles in which the pair formula_10 gives one leg and the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle and the same pair also forms the two legs of the larger triangle. But if (as Fibonacci asserted) no square congruum can exist, then there can be no two integer right triangles that share two sides in this way. Because the congrua are exactly the numbers that are four times the area of a Pythagorean triangle, and multiplication by four does not change whether a number is square, the existence of a square
Automedian triangle satisfying the formula "a" = "b" + "c". That is, in order for the three numbers "a", "b", and "c" to be the sides of an automedian triangle, the sequence of three squared side lengths "b", "a", and "c" should form an arithmetic progression. If "x", "y", and "z" are the three sides of a right triangle, sorted in increasing order by size, and if 2"x" < "z", then "z", "x" + "y", and "y" − "x" are the three sides of an automedian triangle. For instance, the right triangle with side lengths 5, 12, and 13 can be used
