    A triangle can be oriented with respect to the axes in any manner !

    Triangles do NOT have integer vertices ! Vertices mark the angles of a triangle.

    Your language needs work.

    Yes.

    The triangle with vertices (0, 0), (3, 4), (21, -20) has sides 5, 29, 30 and area 72.

    The triangle with vertices (0, 0), (9, 12), (16, -12) has sides 15, 20, 25 and area 150.

    The second is a right triangle, the first is not.

    Just find a triangle with the Pythagorean Theorem with 3 sides. Each side is in a different triangle with Pythagorean Theorem than to the original one.

    in order for pythagorean theorem to be necessary, a triangle must have a right angle..and integer is simply a natural number. Is this a trick question? If not, then its a miracle i passed geometry with a 97%. Can you please message me and explain the solution to me? Haha, this is gonna keep me up all day trying to figure it out!
