What are Pythagorean triplets ?
Pythagorean triplets :
Pythagorean triplets are set of positive integers a, b, c that should satisfy Pythagoras theorem, $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$
Consider the above right angled triangle
a, b are length of sides
c is hypotenuse (Longest side)
Where as a, b, c are positive integers.
It will satisfy the Pythagorean formula $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$
Lets see some examples ,
$3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2$ ; $9 + 16 = 25$ (5 is hypotenuse 3, 4 are other sides)
$5^2 + 12^2 = 13^2$ ; $25 + 144 = 169$ (13 is hypotenuse 5, 12 are other sides)
This is called Pythagorean Triplet.
