A "Pythagorean triple" is a set of 3 numbers that fits the Pythagorean Theorem.So your question is: "Do 2, 6, and 8 form a Pythagorean triple ?", and the answeris either 'yes' or 'no'.(2)2 = 4(6)2 = 364 + 36 = 40(8)2 = 6440 is not equal to 64.So the answer is "no".
The combination 5, 12 and 13 is a Pythagorean triple.
3 4 5 6 8 10 9 40 41 20 21 29 9 12 15 ...and factors of those such as the first 2 examples.
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.
There are many answers to the question provided by the Pythagorean Triples or sides of the integer right triangles where a, b, and c are integers and a2 + b2 = c2 Some examples are 3, 4, 5 ( 25 - 16 = 9) 6, 8, 10 (100 - 64 = 36) etc. See Pythagorean Triples for others.
3-4-5 5-12-13 6-8-10 12-16-20 There is more but these are the ones that I think are the easiest

Yes I can. What's more, I shall now proceed to do so, although you've not requested it: -- 3, 4, 5 -- 6, 8, 10 -- 5, 12, 13 -- 8, 15, 17

Indeed they do, it is a Pythagorean Triple: 6*6 + 8*8 = 10*10. (62 + 82 = 102, 36 + 68 = 100, 100 = 100) The "basic" Pythagorean Triple of a 3, 4, 5 triangle works out like this: 32 + 42 = 52 9 + 16 = 25 25 = 25 Your triangle, the 6, 8, 10, figure, is a "doubling" of the cited "basic" triple, and any multiple of a Pythagorean Triple will also be another Pythagorean Triple, and a right triangle.
You have your basic 3-4-5, 5-12-13, and 8-15-17 Pythagorean Triples which are just patterns that have been discovered by mathematicians along the ages, but here is a Wikipedia link if you want more depth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formulas_for_generating_Pythagorean_triples Also, here is a good link for a list of a lot of triples, plus cool graphics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_triple

Find this using the Pythagorean theorem (a=(1/2 * 8) b=the altitude c = 6).
6/12 + 8/12 = 6+8/12 = 14/12 = 7/6 = 11/6
