[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²
- a is a leg
- b is another leg
- c is the hypotenuse
Explanation:
In order for it to remain a Pythagorean triple, we must follow the equality rules. To make it the exact same expression, all parts of an equation must be multiplied or divided by the same number. If this is done, then it would also remain a Pythagorean triple, and hence we arrive at our answer.
