Integer triangle cosine equals 0, ±1/2, or ±1. The only ones of these giving an angle strictly between 0° and 180° are the cosine value 1/2 with the angle 60°, the cosine value –1/2 with the angle 120°, and the cosine value 0 with the angle 90°. The only combination of three of these, allowing multiple use of any of them and summing to 180°, is three 60° angles. Conditions are known in terms of elliptic curves for an integer triangle to have an integer ratio "N" of the circumradius to the inradius. The smallest case, that of the equilateral triangle, has
Ailles rectangle between the two, with sides of lengths 2, 2 and (by the Pythagorean theorem) 2. The remaining space at the top of the rectangle is a right triangle with small angles of 15° and 75°. and sides of − 1, + 1 and 2. From the construction of the rectangle, it follows that and An alternative construction (also by Ailles) places a 30°–60°–90° triangle in the middle, flanked by two 45°–45°–90° triangles in the lower corners. The lower-left triangle has sides of 1, 1, and , while the lower-right triangle has sides of , , and . The 30°–60°–90° triangle
