Question

Pythagorean triplet whose one number is 13

Answer 1

Hey mate !!



Pythagorean triplets are of the form 2m,m²-1 and m²+1.

Among this, 2m is the smallest number.

→ 2m = 13

m = 13/2

→ m²-1 = (13/2)²-1 

= (169/4)-1

= (169-4)/4

= 165/4

→ m²+1 = (13/2)²+1

= (169/4)+1

= (169+4)/4

= 173/4

Therefore,the other Pythagorean triplets are 165/4 and 173/4.

(13,165/4,173/4)

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

hello

to find pythagorean triplet

let x be the natural number, then the pythagorean triplet are

2x, x² + 1, x² - 1

2x = 13

x = 13/2

x = 6.5

=>6.5² + 1

  43.25

=>6.5² - 1

   41.25

there fore the pythagoras triplets are

                  43.25,41.25 and 6.5
