Try it:  do the sum of the squares of the two smaller numbers equal the square of the larger number?

Find:  1762 + 732   =

Then find:  1922     =

And compare the two answers; if they are equal, these three numbers form a Pythagorean Triple; if they aren't equal, they do not form a Pythagorean Triple.
