Question

State whether the following numbers make a right triangle and a Pythagorean triple:
2, 2 root 2, and 2 root 3

I am pretty sure that both answers are no, because 2 squared and 2 root 2 squared equal 8, whereas 2 root 3 squared equals 6, so it cannot form a right triangle or Pythagorean triple.

Please help, I am confused
