Let p,q,r represent the vectors.  S^→ =Se_z ^(→) =(1/2)(p^→ ×q^→ +q^→ ×r^→ +r^→ ×p^→ )  Since S is extremal, then we may  variate the vectors as  p^→ →p^→ +δp^→   q^→ →q^→ +δq^→   r^→ →r^→ +δr^→   And search for p^→ ,q^→ ,r^→  which make δS=0 and  so δS^→ =0.  Also the variations must be such that  they preserve ∣p∣,∣q∣ and ∣r∣.  δ(p^→ .p^→ )=2p^→ .δp^→ =0⇒p^→ ⊥δp^→ .  Without restriction we may choose  δq^→ =δr^→ =0 since the variations are arbitrary  ⇒δSe_z ^(→) =(1/2)(δp^→ ×q^→ +r^→ ×δp^→ )=0  ⇒δp^→ ×(q^→ −r^→ )=0  ⇒p^→ ⊥δp^→ ∥q^→ −r^→ ⇒p^→ ⊥(q^→ −r^→ )  But (q^→ −r^→ ) is the side of the triangle  opposite the vertex defined by p^→ .  ⇒p^→  must be colinear to the height  This must be true for q^→  and r^→  too.  ⇒ The starting point is the orthocenter.

we see generally the coresponding  equilateral triangle (blue marked in  diagrams) (see also Q123040) is not  the triangle with the maximum   area.

from pq cos α=qr cos β=rp cos γ  we get q cos α=r cos γ, that means  AO⊥BC. similarly BO⊥CA, CO⊥AB.  that means O is the orthocenter of  triangle ABC when the triangle  has the maximum area.  example: p=7, q=6, r=5  a≈9.7924505  b≈10.4351372  c≈10.9495245  this is the same result as in Q161015.

when one of p,q,r is zero, then the  coresponding vertex is also the  orthocenter. in this case the triangle  is right angled.

the task here is to find the triangle  with maximum area when p,q,r are  given. it is not to find the triangle  with given α,β or γ.   so far as p,q,r≠0, the triangle with   maxixum area can never be a triangle  with γ=90° !  the triangle you gave with γ=90° is  not the triangle which has the  maximum area.

you must specify exactly what is your  task. in the current question the  point O is the orthocenter of the  triangle. we can not find a triangle  whose orthocenter lies inside the  triangle and makes an angle γ=90°.  this is only the case when the   orthocenter lies at one vertex of a  right angled triangle, but in this  case one of p,q,r is zero.
