Triangle inequality ≥ b ≥ c" and "formula_8" is the golden ratio, as In the case of right triangles, the triangle inequality specializes to the statement that the hypotenuse is greater than either of the two sides, and less than their sum. The second part of this theorem is already established above for any side of any triangle. The first part is established using the lower figure. In the figure, consider the right triangle . An isosceles triangle is constructed with equal sides . From the triangle postulate, the angles in the right triangle satisfy: Likewise, in the isosceles triangle , the
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
