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
Schwarz triangle function general method which works for all right angled triangles for which the two other angles are less than or equal to /4. The previous method for constructing "P", "P", ... is modified by adding an extra triangle each time an angle 3/2 arises at a vertex. The same reasoning applies to prove there is no overlapping and that the tiling covers the hyperbolic upper half plane. On the other hand, the given configuration gives rise to an arithmetic triangle group. These were first studied in . and have given rise to an extensive literature. In 1977 Takeuchi obtained a complete
