    We need not find the values of a and c seperately, as the question is 'What is the perimeter? ' Perimeter is a + b + c we have got the value of a + c = 7921, just add a (89) to this to get the perimeter. ( a + c ) + b = a + b + c = 7921 + 89 = 8010, which is the answer you got by finding the values of a and c.

    I arrived at the same result because for any prime number b, the second scenario always leads to a=0. Only one solution is therefore possible for the perimeter p with c=(b²+1)/2 and a=(b²-1)/2 p = a+b+c = (b²-1)/2+b+(b²+1)/2 = (b²-1+2b+b²+1)/2 = (2b²+2b)/2 = b²+b We can deduce that for each prime number b, there exists a Pythagorean triplet (a, b, c) of non-zero natural integers verifying the Pythagorean relation a²+b²=c² with c=(b²+1)/2 and a=(b²-1)/2!

    b=89 is a prime number In fact for any prime number b, the second scenario always leads to a=0. Also there is only one possible solution: c=(b²+1)/2 and a=(b²-1)/2 And a perimeter p = a+b+c = (b²-1)/2+b+(b²+1)/2 = (b²-1+2b+b²+1)/2 = (2b²+2b)/2 = b²+b We check it with b=89, p=89²+89=7921+1=8010 We can deduce the following property... For each prime number b, there exists a Pythagorean triplet (a, b, c) of non-zero natural integers satisfying the Pythagorean relation a²+b²=c² with c=(b²+1)/2 and a=(b² -1)/2

    3-4-5, 5-12-13 and 7-24-25 are the three smallest Pythagorean triples where the the smallest side is listed first. There appears to be a pattern. That is c = b+1. The hypotenuse is one larger than the longer leg. Using a = 89, b, c = b+1, the Pythagorean Theorem and some algebra, you get b = 3960 and c = 3961. P = sum of three sides = 8010.

    Something does not make sense. Can you not move the point C to the right keeping given side length at fixed 89 and thus change the sum of other two sides? By moving the point c anywhere on the line you would still keep the side length 'b' constant at 89 but change the perimeter of the triangle.

    Nothing need be prime, and the given value can be an irrational square root (for example) and so long as the number whose square root is taken is factorable, you will have a solution for every possible combination of the factors (BASED ON the factors, not the factors directly). And the given one, of course, with the two unknown sides being a single unit apart (for purists who will be apoplectic realizing I mean "one times a number" to be considered a prime factorization). So if the known value is the square root of 255, 1*255, 3*85, 5*51, and 15*17 will all generate solutions. (By the way, that last fact is why one uses a single pair of primes generating an encryption solution: using several gives the codebreaker several possible solutions.)) For example, from my last: 3*85. (85+3)/2 and (85-3)/2 are the two sides.

    When all are integers, a^2 = c^2 - b^2 c= (a^2 + 1)/2, b = c-1. Works for a=3, b=4, c=5; works for a=5, b=12, c=13. But it doesn't work for a=4. Works for a=21, b=220, c=221. I'm guessing it works for any a except if a itself is a square. Nope, a=9, b=40, c=41 works. I guess it works only when a is odd. Works for a=25, b=312, c=313.

    You forgot to mention your condition that only whole numbers apply. If not, 7921 can also be divided by any other number less than 7921 to produce a fraction, e.g. 7921=(100)(79.21). In that case c=89.605 and a=10.395. The circumference is then 189. This problem therefore gives an infinite number of answers. (You also don't have to calculate a and c separately. If you know that (a+c) is a value, you can add the known value b.)

    89^2=(c-a)(c+a), 89 is prime, 89^2=1×89^2 89×89 89^2×1, thus c-a=1, c+a=89^2, 2a+1=89^2, a=3960, c=3961, therefore the perimeter is 89+3960+3961=8010😊

    At 1:00 of the video he does state the sides are positive integers. Otherwise it would be impossible to solve the problem. In the diagram it would have been better to state this in words rather than stating "sides E Z+". Also the the perimeter question is meaningless. It would have been better to just ask for the lengths of the other two sides.

    Figuring out c+a = 7921 is enough to answer the question. It is not necessary to add c+a and c-a. Just add 89 to 7921 and you find the answer. Why bother calculating c and a individually? Besides, this problem has multiple solutions unless the length of the known side is not a prime number, and infinite solutions if c and/or a are not integers.

It means the side lengths can only be whole numbers. The clickbait picture only shows a right triangle with on side being 89. The true answers are infinite. You CAN NOT solve a triangle with only 2 pieces of information. One known angle of 90 deg. & one side measurement of 89 is not enough information. You always need at least 3 pieces of info to solve. PreMath gives the 3rd piece as (each side must be a whole number). It is kinda trichery, but it is a good math lesson..

    So, if you were asked to find the perimeter of the right triangle with limited information, like we have, you could do as the video did. It finds one possible perimeter. But if there are other values to the base, different hypotenuses will also result, leading to different perimeters. If the sides are integers (positive) there are many solutions. If the integer requirement is lifted, we have an infinite number of bases, hypotenuses and perimeters!
