Triangle inequality is an exterior angle of a right triangle and therefore larger than , meaning the other base angle of the isosceles triangle also is greater than and their sum exceeds in violation of the triangle postulate). This theorem establishing inequalities is sharpened by Pythagoras' theorem to the equality that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Consider a triangle whose sides are in an arithmetic progression and let the sides be , , . Then the triangle inequality requires that The first of these quadratic inequalities requires to
Sum of two squares theorem in the decomposition, 2, is even. Therefore, the theorem states, it is expressible as the sum of two squares. Indeed, . The prime decomposition of the number 3430 is 257. This time, the exponent of 7 in the decomposition is 3, an odd number. So 3430 cannot be written as the sum of two squares. Sum of two squares theorem In number theory, the sum of two squares theorem says when an integer can be written as a sum of two squares, that is, when for some integers , . This theorem supplements Fermat's two-square theorem which says when a
