Varieties of numbers have variety of range and richness, many of which can be explained very easily but extremely difficult to prove. One of the varieties of numbers that have fascinated mathematicians and the lovers of maths is the pythagorean number as they provide limitless supply of exciting and interesting properties. In other word, the method of obtaining three nonzero integers x,y and z under certain relations satisfying the equation x + y = z has been a matter of interest to various mathematicians. For an elaborate review of various properties are may refer [-7]. In [8], the author proves existence of an infinite family of pairs of dissimilar Pythagorean triangles that are pseudo smarandache related. For problems on pairs of Pythagorean triangles one may refer [,5]. In this communication concerns with the problem of determining pairs of Pythagorean triangles wherein each pair -times the difference between the perimeters is expressed interms of special polygonal numbers.

Let P = m(m + q,p = p(p + q be their perimeters respectively. We illustrated below the process of obtaining pair of Pythagorean triangles such that times the difference between their perimeters is expressed in terms of a special polygonal number.

Substituting the corresponding values,k, p in (4 and in the value of m,q, α are obtained.

Conclusion In this paper, we have obtained finitely many pairs of Pythagorean triangles where each pair connects -times the difference between the perimeters with special polygonal numbers. To conclude, one may search for the connections between special numbers and the other characterizations of Pythagorean triangle. IV.
