Yes it is.
5^2 + 12^2 = 25 + 144 = 169 = 13^2
It is also a primitive Pythagorean triple since 5, 12 and 13 have no common divisor larger than 1.
All Pyhagorean triplets can be found by Euclid’s formula
given an arbitrary pair of integers m and n with m > n > 0. The formula states that the integers
a = m^2 - n^2, b = 2mn, c = m^2 + n^2 are Pythagorean triplets.
For m=3, n=2 gives a = 9–4=5 b=2x3x2=12 and c=9+4=13 a Pythagorean triplet
