Given:

The three equations for the three numbers are

a=x^2-y^2

b=2xy

c=x^2+y^2

To find:

The Pythagorean triple generated by using 4 for x and 1 for y.

Solution:

Substituting x=4 and and y=1 in the given equations, we get

a=4^2-1^2

a=16-1

a=15

In the same way find b and c.

b=2(4)(1)

b=8

The third number is

c=4^2+1^2

c=16+1

c=17

The required Pythagorean triple is 8, 15, and 17.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
