Answer:
The triplet is 12, 35, 37
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that,
2m, m² - 1, m² + 1 form pythagorean triplet
So,
★ 2m :
⇒ 2m = 12
⇒ m = 12 / 2
⇒ m = 6
.°. 2m = 12
_________________________
★ m² - 1 :
⇒ (6)² - 1
⇒ 36 - 1
⇒ 35
_______________________
★ m² + 1 :
⇒ (6)² + 1
⇒ 36 + 1
⇒ 37
Therefore,
The triplet is 12, 35,37
★ Verification :
⇒ (37)² = (12)² + (35)²
⇒ 1369 = 144 + 1225
⇒ 1369 = 1369

Answer
We have to find the Pythagorean triplet
Solution
Pythagoras triplets are of the form 2m, m² -1 and m² + 1.
It is given that the one number is 12
So, 2m = 12.
m = 6
Now,
second number = m² -1 = 6² – 1 = 36-1=35
third number = m² + 1 = 6² + 1 = 36+1 =37
Hence, the triplet is 12, 35 and 37.
Answer
Therefore, The Pythagorean triplet whose one number is 12 is 12,35,37.
