Answer 1

Given,

The triplets are $8,15,17$

• A triplet $(a,b,c)$ is called  Pythagorean if the sum of the squares of the two smallest numbers is equal to the square of the biggest number.

The smallest numbers are $8$ and $15$. The square of these two numbers equal to square of biggest number.

So,

$17^{2}=8^{2}+15^{2}$

$289=64+225$

$289=289$

Therefore, $(8,15,17)$ triplets are Pythagorean.
