37x37 = 1369 now 35x 35 + 12x 12 = 1225+144 = 1369 as the sum of square of two smallest nos is equal to the square of greater no so it is a Pythagorean triplet

to prove a Pythagorean triplet we have to show the sum of squares of smaller side is equal to the square of the larger side
i.e. for triangle ABC we have to show AB² +BC²= AC²
37×37 = 1369
35×35 = 1225
12×12 +144 = 1369
SO now 35x 35 + 12x 12 = 1225+144 = 1369
as the sum of square of two smallest side is equal to the square of greater side i.e is 1369
so it is a Pythagorean triplet.
