Answer 1

triple with x = 5 and y = 2. the three side lengths, from smallest to largest. To find : use the formulas to generate a pythagorean triple. Solution : We have given that side length x =5 , y= 2 , z =

Explanation:

The three side lengths, from smallest to largest are: a0, a1, and a2

Answer 2

21, 20 and 29.

Explanation:

Pythagorean Triple refers to three positive integers that represent three sides (a, b and c) of a right triangle. The expressions to find them are:

`a=x^(2)-y^(2)\\b=2xy\\c=x^(2)+y^(2)`

Where,
`x>y`.

So, we just need to replace each value in the expression and find the sides a, b and c.

`a=5^(2)-2^(2)=25-4=21\\b=2(5)(2)=20\\c=5^(2)+2^(2)=25+4=29`

Therefore sides are 21, 20 and 29.
