Question

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Answer 1

Pythagorean theorem is A^2 plus B^2= C^2 its the formula used to find the other side of a triangle. say A is 6ft and B is 8ft. and you're trying to find the Hypotenuse. well you would multiply 6*6 and 8*8 which equals 100. you then find the square root of 100. which is 10!:) hopes this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem, also known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides. Wikipedia

a² + b² = c²

a = side of right triangle

b = side of right triangle

c = hypotenuse
