Question

use the formulas to generate a pythagorean triple with x = 5 and y = 2. the three side lengths, from smallest to largest are:

Answer 1

A squared+b squared=c squared 
5 squared+2 squared=c squared
25+4=29
The square root of 29 is C.
The order would be 2, 5, the square root of 29

 

Answer 2

Answer:

pythagorean triple are 2, 4, $\sqrt{29}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  triple with x = 5 and y = 2. the three side lengths, from smallest to largest.

To find : use the formulas to generate a pythagorean triple.

Solution : We have given that side length x =5 , y= 2 , z = ?

By the Formula of pythagorean triple.

$y^{2} +x^{2} = z^{2}$.

Plugging the values from smallest to largest.

$2^{2} +5^{2} = z^{2}$.

4 + 25 = z²

29 = z²

Taking square root

$\sqrt{29}$ = z

Therefore, pythagorean triple are 2, 4, $\sqrt{29}$.
