Abstract

In the study of 60-degree and 120-degree triangles, one encounters the Diophantine equations of the form x2 = y2 + 3z2. This paper considers the characteristics of the solution of the Diophantine equation. More specifically, it is shown that the equation has solutions of the form x= p = 3n + 1 for some integer n (>0), where p is a prime with 7£ p £199.
