Back to all questions 5
Question True or False — Every Baudhayana triple is either a primitive triple or a scaled version of a primitive triple.
Let (a, b, c) be a Baudhayana triple. Then HCF (a, b, c) = 1 or HCF (a, b, c) ≠ 1 (3, 4, 5): HCF is 1 (10, 24, 26): HCF = 2 If HCF is 1, then the triple is primitive. If HCF is a number other than 1, then the triple is scaled.
