Which set of integers is not a Pythagorean triple? A. 7, 24, 25 B. 13, 84, 85 C. 10, 24, 25 D. 20, 21, 29
are you familiar with the pythagorean theorem?
the triples make a right triangle right
no i dont vocaloid i am not familiar with it im sorry
the pythagorean theorem states that, for a right triangle a^2 + b^2 = c^2
ok...
so, if we want to see whether three numbers make a pythaogrean triple, we plug them into the equation and see if both sides are equal
...
look up the definition of the triple first, prollyu
me no understand
let's take A for example: 7, 24, 25 we can let a = 7, b = 24, and c = 25 7^2 + 24^2 = 25^2 625 = 625 both sides are equal, so this is a pythagorean triple is that clear?
a lil
do you think you can try to test B on your own?
its 576
b is 576
woops
13^2=169 84^2 = 7056 85=7225
good, now add a^2 + b^2
169+7056 = 7225, which is equal to c^2, so c is not the answer now try answer choice C
10^2=100 24^2=576 25^2=625
100+576=676 not 625 it could be c
