Streszczenie
It is classical that a natural number $n$ is congruent iff the rank of $\mathbb{Q}$-points on $E_{n}:y^{2}=x^{3}-n^{2}x$ is positive. In this paper, following Tada (2001), we consider generalised congruent numbers. We extend the above classical criterion to several infinite families of real number fields.
