  1. It has to do with mathematics. It's referring to right triangles. As you probably know, the Pythagorean theorem says that, with a right triangle, a^2 + b^2 = c^2, a and b being the length of the legs and c that of the hypotenuse. A perfect triple occurs when the triangle is right and a, b, and c are all whole, positive numbers. a, b, and c are then called a perfect triple. For example, a right triangle with leg lengths of 3 and 4 and a hypotenuse of 5 is a perfect triple, because 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 and they (3, 4 and 5) are all whole numbers.


  2. Perfect means - the best of the best. Triple means - three. put together it means Best of the best three times!
