Question

write a Pythagorean triplet whose one no is 15​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

8, 17 and 15 are the pythagorean triplet

one number is 15.. and we know pythagorean triplet are in the form of m² -1 , 2m and m² + 1

remember M can not be decimal.

from 2m = 15, we will get 7.5

m²-1 = 15 , we get ±4

m² + 1 = 15, we get √14 , that means no whole number for 14.. means.. decimal.. means NO

so, m is ±4

so, triplet will be like...

2m = 2 × 4 = 8

m² - 1 = (4×4) - 1 = 15

m² + 1 = (4×4) + 1 = 17

So, 8, 15 and 17.
