well, do these points have to be lattice points?

in addition, try to think of pythagorean triplets.

becuase a^2+b^2=169

now all you have to do is maximize the distance on this graph.

right

i was able to solve it

like you said

a^2+b^2 = 13^2 whicch is a circle

the maximum ddistance is the diameter

26

wht

i have a doubt

wait

it cant be the diameter i feel it must be perpendicular

if its the diameter then it will be part of the line 12x+5y = 169

[upbeat swan]

that’s the whole point, no?
