In class we proved that if (x, y, z) is a primitive Pythagorean triple, then (switching x and y if necessary) it must be that (x, y, z) = (m2 − n 2 , 2mn, m2 + n 2 ) for some positive integers m and n satisfying m > n, gcd(m, n) = 1, and either m or n is even. In this question you will prove that the converse is true: if m and n are integers satisfying...
