Created attachment 113462 [details] Formula showing Goal Seek cannot solve for the solution Hi, Mathematician, not programmer here, but LibreOffice Calc didn't seem to iterate through 20 integers on this latest problem. I was trying to solve for Pythagorean triples with the same area -- I used the INT command to plug in for the nearest integer automatically, used the pythagorean theorem for the length of the hypotenuse, subtracted the calculated hypotenuse length from the INT output of that length, and set Goal Seek to set that cell to zero. Goal Seek didn't give any valuable solutions, sets the target variable to zero and doesn't find the solution. The solution is not that difficult - any number near 12, 20, 21 or 35 should solve the equation. File attached.

So, if I understand right, that means that the problem is not linear (use of INT() function and exponentiation) and has multiple solutions. Please, could you explain step by step what to do to reproduce the problem with your file? Set status to NEEDINFO. Please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once you have provided requested information.
