QUESTION :-
find a pythagorean triplet one of whose member is 12
ANSWER :-
12, 35, 37
STEP BY STEP SOLUTION :-
For any natural number m > 1, the Pythagorean triplet is 2m, m² - 1, m² + 1
If m² - 1 = 12, then m² = 13 ➙ m is not an integer
If m² + 1 = 12, then m² = 11 ➙ m is not an integer
So, we take 2m = 12 ➙ m = 6
• m² - 1 = 6² - 1 = 36 - 1 = 35
and m² + 1 = 6² + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37
So, the Pythagorean triplet is (12, 35, 37)
