Description

Given an unsorted array of 3 positive integers [ n1, n2, n3 ], determine if it is possible to form a Pythagorean Triple using those 3 integers.

A Pythagorean Triple consists of arranging 3 integers, such that:

a² + b² = c²

Examples

[5, 3, 4] : it is possible to form a Pythagorean Triple using these 3 integers: 3² + 4² = 5²

[3, 4, 5] : it is possible to form a Pythagorean Triple using these 3 integers: 3² + 4² = 5²

[13, 12, 5] : it is possible to form a Pythagorean Triple using these 3 integers: 5² + 12² = 13²

[100, 3, 999] : it is NOT possible to form a Pythagorean Triple using these 3 integers - no matter how you arrange them, you will never find a way to satisfy the equation a² + b² = c²

Return Values

• For Python: return True or False
• For JavaScript: return true or false
• Other languages: return 1 or 0 or refer to Sample Tests.
