Singular Integer Right Triangles
It turns out that \( 12 \)cm is the smallest length of wire that can be bent to form an integer sided right angle triangle in exactly one way, but there are many more examples.
- \( 12 \) cm: \( (3,4,5) \)
- \( 24 \) cm: \( (6,8,10) \)
- \( 30 \) cm: \( (5,12,13) \)
- \( 36 \) cm: \( (9,12,15) \)
- \( 40 \) cm: \( (8,15,17) \)
- \( 48 \) cm: \( (12,16,20) \)
In contrast, some lengths of wire, like \( 20 \) cm, cannot be bent to form an integer sided right angle triangle, and other lengths allow more than one solution to be found; for example, using \( 120 \) cm it is possible to form exactly three different integer sided right angle triangles.
- \( 120 \) cm: \( (30,40,50), (20,48,52), (24,45,51) \)
Given that \( L \) is the length of the wire, for how many values of \( L \le 1,500,000 \) can exactly one integer sided right angle triangle be formed?
