OpenStudy (primeralph):

Square all three. If the two smaller ones add up to the bigger one, that's your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

What's 27 square?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5.19???

OpenStudy (primeralph):

That's square root. Square means you multiply it by itself.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

729?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

Do the same for all other numbers in the group. Then add the two small results. If it adds up to the largest one, that's the answer. For example, 2,3,4. You do 2squared, 3squared, 4squared. 4,9,16. Add the smaller ones 4+9 = 13. Since 13 is not equal to 16, that'snot a Pythagorean triple.
