You are asking about square roots. Forget the whole triangle (thought the question remains the same whether you think of it as a triangle or not).

You are asking if the sum of the squares of any two numbers, equals the square of another number.

Do some number crunching, see if you can find any combinations. 25^2-24^2-=?^2.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
