​

Answer 1

m-1,m+1,2m

6-1 , 6+1 , 2×6

5,7,12

Answer 2

Answer:

6,8,10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 6 is the smallest number in Pythagorean triplet

But we have for every number m>1, we have (2m,m  

2

−1,m  

2

+1) as a Pythagorean triplet

2m=6

m=6/2=3

Then m  

2

=9

m  

2

−1=9−1=8

m  

2

+1=9+1=10

Therefore the Pythagorean triple is

=(2m,m  2 −1,m  2 +1)=(6,8,10)
