If p and q are integers, then

a = p2 - q2

b = 2pq, and

c = p2 + q2

form a Pythagorean triple.

Furthermore, if p and q are co-prime then the triple is primitive Pythagorean.

How can you tell if three positive numbers form a Pythagorean triple?

The Pythagorean thereom is a^2+b^2=c^2. So, you can tell if they are a Pythagorean triple by seeing if the two smaller numbers squared equal the largest number squared. Example. Are 3,4, and 5 a Pythagorean triple? 3^2= 9. 4^2= 16. 5^2= 25. 9+16=25, so they are a triple.


How do six eight and ten form a Pythagorean triple?

6, 8, and 10 is simply a scaled up version of a 3,4,5 triangle (simply double each side). Since 3,4,5 is a Pythagorean triple, so is the scaled up triangle. Alternatively, since 6, 8, and 10 are integers (whole numbers) that fulfill the Pythagorean theorem (62 + 82 = 102 ), they are a Pythagorean triple.
