Abstract
Let be a nonzero integer. A set of positive integers is called a --tuple if the product of any two of its distinct elements increased by is a perfect square. Let be a positive integer. By elementary means, we show that the -pair can be extended to at most a quadruple (the third and fourth element can only be and ). At the end, we suggest considering a -triple as possible future research direction.
