Is the pythagorean triple? 24,26,29 Explain.

Answer provided by our tutors

A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a, b, and c, such that a^2 + b^2 = c^2


lets check if this is valid for 24,26,29


24^2 + 26^2 = 1252 <> 29^2 = 841


24^2 + 29^2 = 1417 <> 26^2 = 676


26^2 + 29^2 = 1517 <> 24^2 = 576


24,26,29 is not a Pythagorean triple.
