Question

Match the following Pythagorean triplets.

• A. $5^2$
• B. ${13}^2$
• C. ${25}^2$
• D. ${41}^2$

Answer 1

Pythagorean triplets form the three sides of a right angle triangle.
Hence,
$3^2$+$4^2$ = $9+16=25$ = $5^2$ ,
$5^2$+${12}^2$ = $25+144=169$ = ${13}^2$ ,
$7^2$+${24}^2$ = $49+576=625$ = ${25}^2$
$9^2$+${40}^2$ = $81+1600=1681$ = ${41}^2$ .
