Question

Which of the following are Pythagorean triples?

( Picture attached below )

Answer 1

@jim_thompson5910 Can you help me with this problem?

Answer 2

do you know what a pythagorean triple is?

Answer 3

Not exactly. It has to be a whole number that ='s up to 100 or something like that right?

Answer 4

I got blinded sided with this question lol

Answer 5

pythagorean triples are a set of 3 numbers, A, B, and C. A and B are both less than C. A, B, and C will form a pythagorean triple if A^2+B^2=C^2

Answer 6

So for example if you click the picture and look at A. 5,12,13. 5^2= 25 12^2=144 13^2=169 so 5 and 5 and 12 are less so its a pythagorean triple?

Answer 7

5,12,13 is a pythagorean triple because
5^2=25
12^2=144
13^2=169
25+144=169

Answer 8

Oh I see what you mean they gotta be the same or less than C put together

Answer 9

they have to be the same

Answer 10

So if there less than C or more than C its not a triple? Has to be the same only?

Answer 11

yes, it can only be a triple when theyre the same

Answer 12

Got it! Thanks for the help really appreciate it
