A carpenter wanted a flat piece of wood
in a shape of right angled triangle,and
one of it's [sic] sides was to have a lenght
of 3m. Calculate the lenght of the other
two sides if they were consecutive whole
numbers.

it's = it is
*********************

For consecutive even numbered sides, it's 6-8-10
