Question

write a Pythagorean triple with one member 5​

Answer 1

Answer:

3,4,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Members of pythagorean triplet are 2m,m^2-1,m^2+1

Assuming

5 = m^2+1

m^2 = 4

m = 2

Other members will be

2m = 2×2 = 4

m^2-1 = 2×2-1=4-1=3

4 and 3 are the other members.

Hope it helps you.

Answer 2

Answer:

Pythagorean triplets are 2m , m² + 1 , m² - 1

let 5 be m² + 1 so m² = 4

So square root of 4 = 2 , so m = 4

Since we got "m" , we can substitute .

2m = 2 × 2 = 4

m² - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3.

So 3 , 4 and 5 are Pythagorean triplets
