Question 1165285
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Coprime integers are sets of integers such that 1 is the only positive integer that divides all elements of the set.  In this instance we are looking for 2-element subsets of the set {2, 3, 4, 5, 6} that are coprime.


Those two element sets are {2, 3}, {2, 5}, {3, 4}, {3, 5}, and {5, 6}


Now we want to find which of the above pairs of integers where the square of one added to the square of the other produces a Fibonacci number.


In review, the first twelve Fibonacci numbers are:


0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89


The sum of the squares of the elements of the two-element sets identified above:

4 + 9 = 13,  4 + 25 = 29, 9 + 16 = 25, 9 + 25 = 34, 25 + 36 = 61


Of these, only 13 and 34 are numbers in the Fibonacci sequence.


So the pairs you seek are {2, 3} and {3, 5}, hence x, y, z are either 2, 3, 13 or 3, 5, 34
