LET

X^2+Y^2=W  AND XY=T

WE GET:      W+4T=40             (1)  error  -please  see            my later post  i.e.      COMMENT# 15

AND             W+TZ=20            ( 2)

SUBTRACT   (1)-(2)====>  T*(4-Z)=20

CHECK FOR  T =  1,2,4   ...20, -1,....-20  /divisors of 20/

TO FIND ALL INTEGER SOLUTIONS 

GO BACK TO FIND X,Y,Z  (X AND Y ARE INTERCHANGABLE)
