Question 722165: Given information:
If x represents an even integer, then x+2 represents the next consecutive even integer.
The lengths of the sides of a right triangle are consecutive even integers. Find these lengths. (Hint: Use the Pythagorean theorem.) Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Not enough information to solve this for a specific answer. As stated, any pair of consecutive even numbers satisfies the given conditions. Even if the measure of the hypotenuse were restricted to the rational numbers, there are still infinite solutions to this problem.
