Question

check whether (2,8,10)is a pythogorean triplet or not

Answer 1

Since 10 is the biggest , number we have to check whether 10² is equal to the sum of 2² and 8². 

2² + 8² = 4 + 64 = 68
10² = 100

∴ the sum of squares of 8 and 2 is not equal to the square of 10. ∴ 2,8,10 is not a pythagorean triplet
