--description--

Consider all the triangles having:

  • All their vertices on lattice points.
  • Circumcenter at the origin O.
  • Orthocenter at the point H(5, 0).

There are nine such triangles having a $\text{perimeter} ≤ 50$.

Listed and shown in ascending order of their perimeter, they are:

<table> <tbody> <tr> <td> A(-4, 3), B(5, 0), C(4, -3)

A(4, 3), B(5, 0), C(-4, -3)

A(-3, 4), B(5, 0), C(3, -4)

A(3, 4), B(5, 0), C(-3, -4)

A(0, 5), B(5, 0), C(0, -5)

A(1, 8), B(8, -1), C(-4, -7)

A(8, 1), B(1, -8), C(-4, 7)

A(2, 9), B(9, -2), C(-6, -7)

A(9, 2), B(2, -9), C(-6, 7)

  </td>
  <td></td>
</tr>
</tbody> </table>

The sum of their perimeters, rounded to four decimal places, is 291.0089.

Find all such triangles with a $\text{perimeter} ≤ {10}^5$. Enter as your answer the sum of their perimeters rounded to four decimal places.
