  1. Pythagorean Quadruples By, James parsons • Number Theory • Dio phanrine Equations

  2. Review • Pythagorean Theorem • A2+B2=C2 • Pythagorean Triples • Ex: (3,4,5), ( 5, 12, 13),( 8, 15, 17),( 7, 24, 25),(20, 21, 29),(12, 35, 37),( 9, 40, 41),(28, 45, 53),(11, 60, 61),(16, 63, 65) • 162+632=652 • 256+3969=4225 • 4225=4225

  3. Pythagorean Quadruples • a2+b2+c2=d2 • Denoted (a,b,c,d) |a| |b| |c|

  4. Examples • (1,2,2,3), (2,3,6,7), (1,4,8,9), (4,4,7,9), (2,6,9,11), (6,6,7,11), (3,4,12,13), (2,5,14,15), (2,10, 11, 15), (1,12,12,17), (8,9,12,17), (1,6,18,19), (6,6,17,19), (6,10,15,19), (4,5,20,21), (4,8,19,21), (4,13,16,21), (8,11,16,21), (3,6,22,23), (3,14,18,23), (6,13,18,23), (9,12, 20, 25), (12, 15, 16, 25), (2,7,26,27), (2,10,25,27), (2,14,23,27), (7,14,22,27), (10,10,23,27), (3,16,24,29), (11,12,24,29) • 122+162+212=292 • 144+256+441=841 • 841=841

  5. Perfect Cube a,b and c be lengths of a box d,e,f be diagonals =d √b2+c2=e =f a

  6. Problem There aren’t any examples of a perfect cube that are known but extensive computer searches have discovered that if there is one that is possible that one of its edges must be greater than 3·1012. Furthermore, its smallest edge must be longer than 1010

  7. Euler Brick Let a, b and c be lengths of a box Let d, e and f be the diagonals of the face =d √a2+c2=g √b2+c2=e =f a

  8. Euler Brick • (44,117,240) = (125,244,267) • 442+1172+2402=73225 • 732251/2≈270.60 • (85,132,720) = (157,725,732) • 852+1322+7202 =543049 • 5430491/2≈736.92 • (140,480,693) = (500,707,843) • 1402+4802+6932=730249 • 7302491/2≈854.55
