i m getting,
m = 4n+1±√8n+92

where n can take any value which is less than m...

there are many such pairs...

but if we take n=9...
we get m=14 and 23..

take mCn-1,mCn and mCn+1 are the co-effients that are in A.P.

simplify it...

u will get the above result after some bad calculations...

u need to see that m and n can not be a fraction or irrational.
accordingly we have to assign the value of n to get m.
thus (8n+9) should be a perfect square.
take n=2, we get m=7 and take n=9 we get m=14.
