The authors present characterizations of real inner product spaces. Let M be a complete, convex, externally convex metric space. If M satisfies one of the following two properties (a), (b) then M is a real inner product space. (a) Pythagorean orthogonality is homogeneous in M. (b) Metric pythagorean orthogonality implies Birkhoff orthogonality in M.
