A group G is said to be (l, n, n)-generated if it is a quotient group of the triangle group T(p,q,r)=(x,y,z|x$\^$p/=y$\^$q/=z$\^$r/=xyz=1). In [15], the question of finding all triples (l, m, n) such that non-abelian finite simple groups are (l , m, n)-generated was posed. In this paper we partially answer this question for the sporadic group He. We continue the study of (p, q, r) -generations of the sporadic simple groups, where p, q, r are distinct primes. The problem is resolved for the Held group He.

A finite group G is called (l, m, n)-generated, if it is a quotient group of the triangle group T(l, m, n) = 〈$\chi$, y, z│$\chi$$\^$l/ = y$\^$m/ = z$^n$ = $\chi$yz = 1〉. In [19], the question of finding all triples (l, m, n) such that non-abelian finite simple group are (l, m, n)-generated was posed. In this paper we partially answer this question for the sporadic group Ru. In fact, we prove that if p, q and r are prime divisors of │Ru│, where p < q < r and$.$(p, q) $\neq$ (2, 3), then Ru is (p, q, r)-generated.
