Sažetak
Let {X,Y,Z,A,B,C} ℚ+ be such that X2+Y2=A2, X2+Z2=B2 and Y2+Z2=C2. We consider the problem of finding T ℚ+ such that either
T2-X2=◻, T2-Y2=◻, T2-Z2=◻
or
T2-A2=◻, T2-B2=◻, T2-C2=◻.
We show that problem 2 always has a solution and we provide a formula for T. Extensive computation has been unable to find a single solution of problem 1.
