D Correct answer
Explanation

Applying the Pythagorean triples rule as $a^{2}+b^{2}= c^{2}$
Option A: $11^{2}+60^{2}= 61^{2}$
= 121 + 3600 = 3721 is a Pythagorean triples
Option B: $16^{2}+63^{2}= 65^{2}$
= 256 + 3969 = 4225 is a Pythagorean triples
Option C: $28^{2}+45^{2}= 53^{2}$
= 784 + 2,025 = 2809 is a Pythagorean triples
Option D: $30^{2}+80^{2}= 89^{2}$
= 900 + 6400 $\neq$ 7921 is not a Pythagorean triples.

D Correct answer
Explanation

For any natural numbers m > 1, $2m, m^{2} - 1$, $m^{2} + 1$ form a Pythagorean triplet.
If we take $m^2 + 1 = 22$, then $m^2 = 21$
The value of m will not be an integer.
If we take $m^2 - 1 = 22$, then $m^2 = 23$
Again the value of m will not be an integer.
Let $2m = 22$
$m = \cfrac{22}{2}$
$m = 11$
$2m = 2 \times 11 = 22$
$m^{2} - 1$ = $11^{2} - 1$
$= 121 - 1 = 120$
$m^{2} + 1$ = $11^{2} + 1$
$= 121 + 1 = 122$
Therefore, the Pythagorean triplets are $ 22, 120, 122.$

  2. $34, 288, 291$
  3. $34, 288, 290$
  4. $35, 288, 290$

C Correct answer
Explanation

For any natural numbers m > 1, $2m, m^{2} - 1$, $m^{2} + 1$ forms a Pythagorean triplet.
If we take $m^2 + 1 = 34$, then $m^2 = 33$
The value of m will not be an integer.
If we take $m^2 - 1 = 34$, then $m^2 = 35$
Again the value of m will not be an integer.
Let $2m = 34$
$m = \dfrac{34}{2}$
$m = 17$
$2m = 2 \times 17 = 34$
$m^{2} - 1$ = $17^{2} - 1$
$= 289 - 1 = 288$
$m^{2} + 1$ = $17^{2} + 1$
$=289 + 1 = 290$
Therefore, the Pythagorean triplets are $34, 288, 290.$

A Pythagorean triplet whose smallest member is $8$, is:

  1. $8, 15, 18$
  2. $8, 13, 16$
  3. $8, 14, 17$
  4. $8, 15, 17$

D Correct answer
Explanation

We can get Pythagorean triplet by using general form $2m,\ m^{2}-1,\ m^{2}+1 $
Let us first take 

$m^{2}-1=8$
So, $m^{2}=8+1=9$
Which gives $m=3$
Therefore $2m=6$ and  $ \displaystyle m^{2}+1 = 10  $
The triplet is thus $6,8,10$, but $8$ is not the smallest member of this triplet.

So let us try
$2m=8$
then $m=4$
We get $ \displaystyle m^{2}+1 = 16-1=15$
and $ \displaystyle m^{2}+1 =16+1=17$
The triplet is $8,15,17$ with $8$ as the smallest member.

Hence, option $D.$

Instead of walking along two adjacent sides of a rectangular field, a boy took a short cut along the diagonal and saved the distance equal to half of the longer side. Then the ratio of the shorter side to the longer side is?

  1. $\cfrac{2}{3}$
  2. $\cfrac{5}{3}$
  3. $\cfrac{4}{3}$
  4. $\cfrac{8}{3}$

D Correct answer
Explanation

Atp,

$\sqrt{l^2+b^2} + \cfrac{l}{2} = l+b$
$\sqrt{l^2+b^2} = b+\cfrac{l}{2}$
$l^2+b^2 = b^2+2lb+\cfrac{l^2}{4}$
$\cfrac{3l^2}{4} = 2lb$
$\cfrac{l}{b} = \cfrac{8}{3}$
