I’m sure most of you know that it is very hard to create right triangles with vex parts. To find them normally you can use the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2 but sometimes you can get the triangle to if the equation is just a little bit off. For example 7^2 + 11^2 = 13^2 can be simplified to 170 = 169. While that equation is not true, the tolerance in vex parts allow for this combination to work. The following is a list of all the combinations that are within 1/20th of an inch (1/10th of a vex square) of working perfectly with the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
Note: The first two columns show the two legs of the right triangle. The third column shows the hypotenuse of the triangle. The last number shows the error or how far off from the equation is the combination. Also all the numbers are measured in vex squares (0.5 in).
