Pythagorean-Platonic Lattice Method for Finding all Co-Prime Right Angle Triangles
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method for determining all of the co-prime right angle triangles in the Euclidean field by looking at the intersection of the Pythagorean and Platonic right angle triangles and the corresponding lattice that this produces. The co-prime properties of each lattice point representing a unique right angle triangle are then considered. This paper proposes a conjunction between these two ancient disparaging theorists. This work has wide applications in information security where cryptography involves improved ways of finding tuples of prime numbers for secure communication systems. In particular, this paper has direct impact in enhancing the encryption and decryption algorithms in cryptography. Keywords—Pythagorean triples, platonic triples, right angle triangles, co-prime numbers, cryptography.

Prime Pythagorean triangles
A prime Pythagorean triangle has three integer sides of which the hypotenuse and one leg are primes. In this article we investigate their properties and distribution. We are also interested in finding chains of such triangles, where the hypotenuse of one triangle is the leg of the next in the sequence. We exhibit a chain of seven prime Pythagorean triangles and we include a brief discussion of ...
متن کاملA Heron Diierence
Is it possible that the lengths of two sides of a primitive Heron triangle have a c ommon factor? The triangle with sides 9, 65, 70 and area 252 shows that this is possible. But notice that the common factor 5 is a prime of the form 4+1. Surprisingly, however, such a common factor cannot be a prime of the form 4 ; 1. Heron's name is familiar to anyone who has used the formula = p s(s ; a)(s ; b...
متن کاملNon-euclidean Pythagorean Triples, a Problem of Euler, and Rational Points on K3 Surfaces
We discover suprising connections between three seemingly different problems: finding right triangles with rational sides in a non-Euclidean geometry, finding three integers such that the difference of the squares of any two is a square, and the problem of finding rational points on an algebraic surface in algebraic geometry. We will also reinterpret Euler’s work on the second problem with a mo...
متن کاملAn Extension of the Fundamental Theorem on Right-angled Triangles
{3, 4, 5} is perhaps the most famous Pythagorean Triple with interest in such triples dating back many thousands of years to the ancient people of Mesopotamia. In this article, we shall consider such triples, with the restriction that the elements of these triples must not have any common factors they are Primitive Pythagorean Triples (PPTs). In particular, we shall consider the question of how...
متن کاملThe Modular Tree of Pythagorus
The Pythagorean triples of integers satisfying x + y = z have been studied and enumerated since Babylonian times. Since Diophantus, it has been known that this set of triples is related to the standard rational parameterization of the unit circle, ( t 2−1 t2+1 , 2t t2+1 ). The Pythagorean triple solutions, which are relatively prime, have the elementary and beautiful characterization as integer...
