Hello,
Are there any primitive Pythagorean triples where the one hypotenuse has more than the two values for the other two sides? So, in the case of the 3, 4, 5 right triangle, there's the two possible arrangement of sides 3, 4, 5 and 4, 3, 5. Are there any triangles with more than two arrangements for the one single size of hypotenuse?
I haven't found any, looking at hypotenuse up to 10,000, but don't immediately see why there couldn't be solutions of: a, b, h; b, a, h; c, d, h and d, c, h.
Apologies if this is inappropriate here. My maths is okay, but just high- school level, nothing more...
