When we divide the last two digits of prime number 569 by 4, we get a remainder of one. That means that 569 is the sum of two square numbers, specifically, 20² + 13² = 569.
From those two square numbers we will obtain 569 as the hypotenuse of the primitive Pythagorean triple 231-520-569:
- 20² – 13² = 231
- 2 x 13 x 20 = 520
- 20² + 13² = 569
