Is Pythagorean Triplet and Pythagoran tyoyee are the same?

I have never heard of Pythagoran tyoyee :!: :roll:

As far as I can remember the answer is $x=2$. But the formal proof is not easy to write down. The general idea is that for $x>2$ RHS increases as a faster speed (slope greater), and the opposite is true for $x<2$

Moon vaia, isn't it Fermat's last theorem that $a^x+b^x=c^x$ is only true for $x=2$?

actually Fermat's last theorem states that $x>2$

I meant that fermat's last theorem states that if x>1 then $a^x+b^x=c^x$ is only true for $x=2$. @ tushar
