The oblong numbers were first studied by Pythagorean. These numbers are studied in terms of special Pythagorean Triangles. The perimeters of such triangles are obtained as a double of hexagonal numbers. Existence of Pythagorean triangles with two consecutive sides and their perimeters as a double of hexagonal numbers is also investigated.
