let the sides are x,x+2,x+4 ,x being an odd integer then , x+(x+2)+(x+4)<1000 , i.e, 3x<994 ,x being an odd integer ,max value of x can be 331.....now x can be any odd no from 1 to 331...like 1,3,5,7,..............,329,331...and for every such x,you will get 1 triangle..(options form an arithmetic progression)......331=1+(n-1)2,...

Let the sides be x,x+2,x+4 ,x being an odd integer then , x+(x+2)+(x+4)<1000 , i.e, 3*x<994 ,x being an odd integer. Max value of x can 331 Now x can be any odd no from 1 to 329...like 1,3,5,7,..............,331 and for every such x, you will get one triangle.. From arithmetic progression......331=1+(n-1)*2,...

165 @Neel, @Vikas, @ Raghunathan... U need to remove one case 1,3,5 as it cannot form sides of a triangle (since sum of two sides cannot be less than third side)
