Step-by-step explanation:
If we take m2 + 1 = 18,
m2 = 17
The value of m will not be an integer.
If we take m2 − 1 = 18, then m2 = 19
Again the value of m is not an integer.
Let 2m =18
m = 9
Thus, m2 − 1 = 81 − 1 = 80 and m2 + 1 = 81 + 1 = 82
the Pythagorean triplet is 18, 80, and 82.

Answer:
(18,80,82)
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers of a pythagorean triplet are (2m , m²-1 , m²+1 ) if the number is m.
The number 18 only follows the condition 2m. Hence 18 = 2m.
Therefore m = 9.
Hence, the pythagorean triplet is (2*9 , 9² - 1 , 9² + 1) = (18,80,82)
