(5, 12, 13)
Advertisements
उत्तर
In the triplet (5, 12, 13),
52 = 25,
122 = 144,
132 = 169
52 + 122 = 25 + 144 = 169
The square of the largest number is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two numbers.
∴ (5, 12, 13) is 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.
