उत्तर
It is known that, if in a triplet of natural numbers, the square of the biggest number is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two numbers, then the three numbers form a Pythagorean triplet.
The given set of numbers is (4, 7, 8).
The biggest number among the given set is 8.
82 = 64; 72 = 49; 42 = 16
Now, 16 + 49 = 65 ≠ 64
∴ 42 + 72 ≠ 82
Thus, (4, 7, 8) does not form a Pythagorean triplet.

Nazima is fly fishing in a stream. The tip of her fishing rod is 1.8 m above the surface of the water and the fly at the end of the string rests on the water 3.6 m away and 2.4 m from a point directly under the tip of the rod. Assuming that her string (from the tip of her rod to the fly) is taut, how much string does she have out (see Figure)? If she pulls in the string at the rate of 5 cm per second, what will be the horizontal distance of the fly from her after 12 seconds?
