Euclidean Triangles Associated with Diophantine D(4)-triples

Abstract

In this paper we study Euclidean triangles associated with Diophantine D(4)-triples. For a D(4)-triple {a,b,c}, a<b<c, we prove that the lengths r=√(ab+4), s=√(ac+4) and t=√(bc+4) associated with this D(4)-triple form a non-degenerate triangle if and only if the triple is regular and r>b−a. For a fixed shortest side r, we describe all triangles associated with D(4)-triples in terms of the factorisations of r2−4, give a divisor criterion for their number, and determine their angle type. We also prove that two similar triangles associated with D(4)-triples are necessarily congruent. Finally, for the family of D(4)-triples {r−2,r+2,4r}, we obtain a Pell-equation characterisation of the Heronian triangles associated with these D(4)-triples.

For a fixed shortest side r, we describe all triangles associated with D(4)-triples in terms of the factorisations of r^2−4, give a divisor criterion for their number, and determine their angle type. We also prove that two similar triangles associated with D(4)-triples are necessarily congruent. Finally, for the family of D(4)-triples {r−2,r+2,4r}, we obtain a Pell-equation characterisation of the Heronian triangles associated with these D(4)-triples.
