  • A Pythagorean triple is a triple of natural numbers satisfying the equation a^2+b^2+c^2. One way to produce a Pythagorean triple is to add the reciprocals of any two consecutive even or odd numbers. For example, 1/5+1/7=12/35. Now 12^2+35^2=1369. This is a Pythagorean triple if 1369 is a perfect square, which it is since 1369=37^2. So 12, 35, 37 is a Pythagorean triple. Prove that this method always works.
