a few day ago was PI day 3.1415... the first the non-unity numbers:
3-4-5 form the first Pythagorean Triple - order 1. Order one because it is the radius of the inscribed circle of the 3-4-5 triangle. Conveniently it is also twice it's area divided by its perimeter. In fact, the inscribed circle of all triangles formed by Pythagorean Triples have an integer radius. Life is good!
