OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just looking for some advice to get me going in the right direction with this proof

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so u lookin for the answers of this equation\[x^2+y^2=p^2\]where x,y,p are some prime numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only x or y and p

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if x is prime then y doesn't have to be prime and vice versa

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but p must be prime

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is possible\[3^2+4^2=5^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh I forgot to add x^2 > 50 y^2 > 50 and p^2 > 50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm actually trying to find a set of x,y, and p so that x^2 + y^2 = p^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

such that p^2 is as small as possible, but greater than 50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is possible\[11^2+60^2=61^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is there an algorithmic way to find such combinations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you mukushla I will look at it :) thats just what I was looking for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem
