Question

Is 2,3,7,a Pythagorean triplet

Answer 1

Given: 2,3,7

To check: Triplet of number

Pythagoreon triplet: Sum of square of two smaller number is equal to larger number.

So, $7^2=2^2+3^2$

$\Rightarrow 49=4+9$

$\Rightarrow 49\neq 13$

Hence, the given number is not Pythagorean triplet.

Answer 2

Answer: No, it is not.

Step-by-step explanation

Here, let us assume a=2, b=3 and c=7

To be a Pythagorean triplet, a^2+b^2 should be equal to c^2

a^2=2^2=4

b^2=3^2=9

c^2=7^2=49

here, 4+9=13 and not 49, ∴it is not a pythagorean triplet.
