Question

write a Pythagorean triplet whose smallest number is 6​

Answer 1

Write a Pythagorean triplet whose smallest number is 6.

➡PYTHAGOREAN TRIPLET ⬅

Smallest member = 6.

2m = 6.

m= 3.

Hence the triplet is 6 , 8 , 10.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 6 is the smallest number in Pythagorean triplet

But we have for every number m>1, we have (2m,m2−1,m2+1) as a Pythagorean triplet

2m=6

m=6/2=3

Then m2=9

m2−1=9−1=8

m2+1=9+1=10

Therefore the Pythagorean triple is =(2m,m2−1,m2+1)=(6,8,10)
