yes

hoblos · Answer

25^2 = 625
24^2+7^2 = 625

so 25^2 = 24^2 + 7^2
thus they form a Pythagorean triple

.sam. · Answer

A Pythagorean triple has three positive integers a, b, and c, such that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. In other words, a Pythagorean triple represents the lengths of the sides of a right triangle where all three sides have integer lengths.Such a triple is commonly written (a, b, c). Some well-known examples are (3, 4, 5) and (5, 12, 13).
A primitive Pythagorean triple is one in which a, b and c are coprime (the greatest common divisor of a, b and c is 1).
