Detailed Solution

If m > 1, we have (2m)2 + (m2 – 1)2 = (m2 + 1)2. So, 2m, m2 – 1, and m2 + 1 form a Pythagorean triplet.

For example,

Let us first take m2– 1 = 3

So, m2 = 3 + 1 = 4

which gives m = 2

Therefore, 2m = 4 and m2 + 1 = 5

The triplet is thus 3, 4, and 5.

This can also be verified as follows:

32 + 42 =52

9 + 16 = 25

Hence this is verified.
