The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_cosines Law of cosines] states that for an angle γ, (gamma) of any triangle, if the sides adjacent to the angle are A and B and the side opposite is C; then the lengths of the sides are related by this formula:
A2 + B2 - 2ABcos(γ) = C2
;Specific angles:
For an angle of of '''90º''' this becomes the more familiar "Pythagoras equation":
A2 + B2 = C2
For an angle of '''60º''' this becomes the less familiar equation:
A2 + B2 - AB = C2
And finally for an angle of '''120º''' this becomes the equation:
A2 + B2 + AB = C2
;Task:
- Find all integer solutions (in order) to the three specific cases, distinguishing between each angle being considered.
- Restrain all sides to the integers '''1..13''' inclusive.
- Show how many results there are for each of the three angles mentioned above.
- Display results on this page.
Note: Triangles with the same length sides but different order are to be treated as the same.
;Optional Extra credit:
- How many 60° integer triples are there for sides in the range 1..10_000 ''where the sides are not all of the same length''.

## REXX
### using some optimization
Instead of coding a general purpose subroutine (or function) to solve all of the
task's requirements, it was decided to
write three very similar '''do''' loops (triple nested) to provide the
answers for the three requirements.
Three arguments (from the command line) can be specified which indicates the
maximum length of the triangle sides
(the default is '''13''', as per the task's requirement) for each of the
three types of angles ('''60º''', '''90º''', and '''120º''') for
the triangles. If the maximum length of the triangle's number of
sides is positive, it indicates that the triangle sides are
displayed, as well as a total number of triangles found.
If the maximum length of the triangle sides is negative, only
the ''number'' of triangles are
displayed (using the
absolute value of the negative number).

[[3, 5, 7], [7, 8, 13]]
```

count = ar.combination(2).count{|a,b| squares.key?(a*a + b*b - a*b)}
puts "There are #{count} 60° triangles with unequal sides of max size #{n}."
