Question 5 True or False — Every Baudhāyana triple is either a primitive triple or a scaled version of a primitive triple.True. A "primitive" triple is one where the three numbers share no common factors (like 3, 4, 5). Every other Baudhāyana triple in existence is just a scaled-up version of a primitive one (like multiplying 3, 4, 5 by two to get 6, 8, 10).
