## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
In the classic "Crossing Ladders" problem, we are given the lengths x and y of two ladders resting on the opposite walls of a narrow, level street. We are also given the height h above the street where the two ladders cross and we are asked to find the width of the street (w).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here, we are only concerned with instances where all four variables are positive integers.
|
|
For example, if x = 70, y = 119 and h = 30, we can calculate that w = 56.
|
|
|
|
In fact, for integer values x, y, h and 0 < x < y < 200, there are only five triplets (x,y,h) producing integer solutions for w:
|
|
(70, 119, 30), (74, 182, 21), (87, 105, 35), (100, 116, 35) and (119, 175, 40).
|
|
|
|
For integer values x, y, h and 0 < x < y < 1 000 000, how many triplets (x,y,h) produce integer solutions for w?
