Triple 32 is the result of multiplying 32 by 3. Therefore, triple 32 is equal to 96. This can be calculated by adding 32 three times (32 + 32 + 32) or by multiplying 32 by 3 (32 x 3), both of which yield the same answer of 96.

The easy answer: Yes. To go in depth, the pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2. C is always the longest side, or hypotenuse, so you would replace c with 40. A and B can be in any order, so let's replace a with 24 and b with 32. A Squared=24 Squared=576 B Squared=32 Squared=1024 C Squared=40 Squared=1600 Now to test it: 576+1024=1600 1600=1600 So yes, it is a pythagorean triple. * * * * * There is a simpler method. 3-4-5 is a well known Pythagorean triple. Therefore, any multiple of the triple is also a Pythagorean triple. 24-32-40 are 8 times the corresponding numbers and so they form a Pythagorean triple.
In any Pythagorean triple, the square of the two shortest sides is equal to the square of the longest side. For example, 32+42=52. Since it is impossible to have a right-angled triangle with a side of 1, it is impossible for two sides of a right-angled triangle to be of the same length.Therefore, a Pythagorean triple will always contain three differently-sized sides.
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.
