A Pythagoras Triplet ( A , B , C ) satisfy the condition that A , B , C are positive integers such that A 2 + B 2 = C 2 . From above, we can see that ( 3 , 4 , 5 ) , ( 5 , 1 2 , 1 3 ) , ( 6 , 8 , 1 0 ) , ( 7 , 2 4 , 2 5 ) are all Pythagoras Triplets.
Note that equations above are equivalent to
( 2 2 − 1 2 ) 2 + ( 2 ⋅ 2 ⋅ 1 ) 2 ( 3 2 − 2 2 ) 2 + ( 2 ⋅ 3 ⋅ 2 ) 2 ( 3 2 − 1 2 ) 2 + ( 2 ⋅ 3 ⋅ 1 ) 2 ( 4 2 − 3 2 ) 2 + ( 2 ⋅ 4 ⋅ 3 ) 2 = = = = ( 2 2 + 1 2 ) 2 ( 3 2 + 2 2 ) 2 ( 3 2 + 1 2 ) 2 ( 4 2 + 3 2 ) 2
True or false? :
"All Pythagoras Triplets ( A , B , C ) can be written as ( m 2 − n 2 , 2 m n , m 2 + n 2 ) for positive integers m , n with m > n ."
Note that the values of A and B are interexchangeable, so the triplet ( 3 , 4 , 5 ) is equivalent to ( 4 , 3 , 5 ) .
