Question

Which of the following triplets are Pythagorean?
(i) (14, 48, 50)
(ii) (18, 79, 82)​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) (14,48,50)

is a triplet

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that 50 is the largest side.

= $AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2}$

= $50^{2}$ = $14^{2}$+$48^{2}$

= 2500 = 2500

Therefore,   14 48 and 50 can be the pythagorean triplets.

As we know that 82 is the largest side.

=$AC^{2} = AB^{2} + BC^{2}$

= $82^{2} = 79x^{2} + 18^{2}$

= 6724 $\neq$ 6565

Therefore, 18 79 and 82 are not pythagorean triplets.
