Project Euler Problem 91: https://projecteuler.net/problem=91
The points P (x1, y1) and Q (x2, y2) are plotted at integer coordinates and
are joined to the origin, O(0,0), to form ΔOPQ.
There are exactly fourteen triangles containing a right angle that can be formed
when each coordinate lies between 0 and 2 inclusive; that is,
0 ≤ x1, y1, x2, y2 ≤ 2.
Given that 0 ≤ x1, y1, x2, y2 ≤ 50, how many right triangles can be formed?

Check if the triangle described by P(x1,y1), Q(x2,y2) and O(0,0) is right-angled.
Note: this doesn't check if P and Q are equal, but that's handled by the use of
itertools.combinations in the solution function.
