there are some rules to prove Pythagoras triplet they are
suppose right angle triangle having side A B and C where
A = perpendicular
B = base
C = hypotenuse
- in the above for Pythagoras triplet A and C must be odd number while B must be a even number .
- where B side is simplified by (a^2 -1)/2
- C side is simplified by B + 1
- also know that according to Pythagoras theorem C^2 = A^2 + B^2
Now assume
m = 2
so
B = 4
So
B = (A^2 - 1)/2
4 = (A^2 - 1)/2
8 = A^2 - 1
A= 3
Now
C = B + 1
C = 5
Again put m = 2 given question
we get
B = 4 ,A = 3 and C = 5
So the given triangle is right angle triangle it follow paythagors triplet .

Answer:
Let's assume such a, b, c, d exists: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, and b^2 + c^2 = d^2.
From a^2 + b^2 = c^2, we get c^2 - b^2 = a^2. Times c^2 + b^2 = d^2 we get c^4 - b^4 = (ad)^2.
However, this is impossible, as "Fermat proved, there can be no integer solution to the equation x4 - y4 = z2 ..." Please refer to Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for specific exponents
