Comments

Absolute value of the imaginary part of any of the nontrivial divisors of 2 in O_Q(sqrt(-7)).

The incircle of a triangle with sides of lengths 4, 5, 6 units respectively has a radius of sqrt(7)/2.

With a different offset, decimal expansion of 5 * sqrt(7).

From Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 18 2017: (Start)

In a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle with a radius of 1 unit the three distinct distances between any vertex and the middle of the sides are 1/2, sqrt(7)/2 and sqrt(13)/2.

The continued fraction expansion of sqrt(7)/2 is 1, repeat(3, 10, 3, 2). The convergents are given in A294972/A294973. (End)
