It circumvents the traditional approach to Heron triangles based on elliptic curves. Its key focus is on the geometry, calculus, and algebra of the associated area curve. The main result presents a simple sufficient condition for the existence of infinitely many Heron triangles with constant area and perimeter. An application to Diophantine equations is also given.
