Question 6351: Ordered Leg Squares and Hypotenuse Square

Original question and givens

Use a Euclidean right-triangle side-length model with strictly positive integer legs. a=1, b=1. Give (a², b², a²+b²), retaining leg order; the last field is the model’s hypotenuse square.

• G001 — Use a Euclidean right-triangle side-length model with strictly positive integer legs. a=1, b=1. Give (a², b², a²+b²), retaining leg order; the last field is the model’s hypotenuse square.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

Euclidean right-side model;positive leg a=1

use the supplied right-angle premise:a²+b²=c²

known leg a squared := square(1)

known leg a squared = 1

leg b squared := square(1)

leg b squared = 1

sum of leg squares := sum(1, 1)

sum of leg squares = 2

Reverse checks

• S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute sum of leg squares with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute leg b squared with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute known leg a squared with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
• S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(1, 1, 2)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
