Question

find pythagorean triplet of =16

Answer 1

I think it is 16,65,63....
we can take the triplets as (2m,m²+1,m²-1)
Let us assume that m²-1 = 16
⇒ m²= 17
⇒m is not a natural number
Let us assume m²+1 = 16
⇒m²=15
⇒m is not a natural number
Now let us assume that 2m = 16
⇒⇒m = 8
here m is a natural number.

∴the numbers would be
m²-1 = 8²-1 = 63
m²+1 = 8²+1 = 65
2m = 2*8 = 16






Hope it helps....:)
