Find the Pythagorean triplet whose smallet member is 12.


Answer:

(12,35,37)

Step by Step Explanation:
  1. For every natural number m>1, (2m,m21,m2+1) is a Pythagorean triplet.
    Putting 2m=12, we get m=6.

    Thus,
    m21=621=35
    m2+1=62+1=37
  2. Hence, (12,35,37) is a Pythagorean triplet.
