Write the general form of Pythagorean Triplets.
Answers
Answer:
A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a, b, and c, such that a2 + b2 = c2. Such a triple is commonly written (a, b, c), and a well-known example is (3, 4, 5). If (a, b, c) is a Pythagorean triple, then so is (ka, kb, kc) for any positive integer k.
Answer:
the general forms of Pythagorus Triplets are:- first set (3,4,5) second set (6,8,10) third set (8,15,17) forth set (5,12,13) and so on
Explanation:
The process to find the set is, suppose the third set... in the question we will always be give at least two sides and we will have to find the third side. The process is AB² + BC² = CA² (where AB is the base, BC the perpendicular side and CA is the hypotenuse)
Suppose 8 and 15 are given, then
8² + 15² = CA²
64 + 225 = CA²
289 = CA²
CA = √289
CA = 17
Therefore the hypotenuse is 17 cm in length.
