For example, 3² + 4

Answer 1

Euclid method gives the perimeter to be m(m+n)= p/2 where m> n and the sides are m^2+n^2 is the hypotenuse and the legs are 2mn and m^2-n^2.thus m(m+n)=500 quickly gives m= 20 and n=5. The sides are 200, 375 and 425. Use Euclid to solve all pythorean primitive questions.
