Pythagorean triples


 Pythagorean triples with same digital endings
 Sum of squares of two integers can be a square of an integer. Such a set of integers is called Pythagorean triple. The smallest known Pythagorean triple is (3,4,5). One can develop Pythagorean triples having same digital endings. For example in the case of (3,4,5) , we have first few Pythagorean triples with same digital endings
 32  + 42  = 52
132 + 842 = 852
232 + 2642= 2652
332+ 5442= 5452  
432 + 9242 = 9252
This set can be expressed with an algebraic relation
(10 n + 3)2 + ( 50 n2 + 30n + 4)2 =  ( 50 n2 + 30n + 5)2
