<P> A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a , b , and c , such that a + b = c . Such a triple is commonly written ( a , b , c ) , and a well - known example is ( 3 , 4 , 5 ) . If ( a , b , c ) is a Pythagorean triple , then so is ( ka , kb , kc ) for any positive integer k . A primitive Pythagorean triple is one in which a , b and c are coprime ( that is , they have no common divisor larger than 1 ) . A triangle whose sides form a Pythagorean triple is called a Pythagorean triangle , and is necessarily a right triangle . </P>
