Question

if one of the member of pythagerean triplet is 8 find the two members

Answer 1

take one as c and other one as k 8square plus k square is equal to c square
then knis equal to c square minus 64

Answer 2

Let 2m = 8

=>m = 8/2 =4

Now,

m²-1 = 4²- 1

16 - 1 = 15

m² +1 = 4²+1

16 + 1 = 17

since ( 8,15,17) is in the form (2m,m²-1,m²+1)

so,( 8,15,17) is a Pythagorean triplet
