write a Pythagorean triplet with 7 as a member.
Answers
Answer:
As we know that 2m, m² + 1 and m² - 1 form a Pythagorean Triplet for any number, m > 1.
Let us assume 2m = 7
Therefore, m = 7/2 = 3.5
And, m² + 1
= (3.5)² + 1
= 12.25 + 1
= 13.25
And, m² - 1
= (3.5)² - 1
= 12.25 - 1
= 11.25
Test = (7)² + (11.25)² = (13.25)²
⇒ 49 + 126.5625 = 175.5625
⇒ 175.5625 = 175.5625
Hence, Pythagorean Triplet with 7 as a number is 7, 11.25 and 13.25

Answer:
Hello
As we know 2m, m 2 + 1 and m2 - 1 form a Pythagorean triplet for any number, m > 1.
we know that m 2 + 1 >m2 - 1
but we don't know what is greater between m2 - 1 & 2m.
So, let us assume that 2m =7.
Answer will be in decimals....
let us assume that m2 - 1=7
m2 =8
Again a problem.
So, I tried hit and trial method and got:
(25)2 = (24)2 +(7)2
625 = 576 +49.
And that's the answer you REQUIRED.
2nd Hit and trial method :
Actually, 2mn, n 2 + m 2 and n2 - m2 form a Pythagorean triplet .
So, in the first case we took n2 -1 =7
now, we will take
n2- m2=7
n2 = 7+m2
hence we conclud that
7+m2 should be a perfect
square so as to make n an integer,
On trials when m=3
7+m2 =16, a perfect square ,n=4
2mn=24,
n 2 + m 2=25
n2 - m2=7
Hence we got the answer.
Hope it helps.
