Expert Answer
Let the two odd positive numbers be x = 2k + 1 a nd y = 2p + 1
Hence x2 + y2 = (2k + 1)2 + (2p + 1)2
= 4k2 + 4k + 1 + 4p2 + 4p + 1
= 4k2 + 4p2 + 4k + 4p + 2
= 4(k2 + p2 + k + p) + 2
Clearly notice that the sum of square is even the number is not divisible by 4.
Hence if x and y are odd positive integers, then x2 + y2 is even but not divisible by 4
Hence x2 + y2 = (2k + 1)2 + (2p + 1)2
= 4k2 + 4k + 1 + 4p2 + 4p + 1
= 4k2 + 4p2 + 4k + 4p + 2
= 4(k2 + p2 + k + p) + 2
Clearly notice that the sum of square is even the number is not divisible by 4.
Hence if x and y are odd positive integers, then x2 + y2 is even but not divisible by 4
