How do you work out Pythagoras Theorem?
It is pretty simple, all you have to do is know the equation "A²=+ B²=C²", but you always have to remember that the longest side is "c"
Application of trignometry in real life?
If you work in engineering, you'll need trigonometry, and other advanced math topics, all the time. Otherwise, you can come along quite well without it, and will seldom find any practical use for it.
A figure has 2 sides of parallel sides and 4 right angles All of the sides are the same lenght What are the 3 names for the figure?
The 3 names for this figure are: 1. Square - all sides are parallel, there are 4 right angles, and all the sides are the same length. All squares are quadrilaterals and parallelograms. 2. Quadrilateral - 4 sides. NOT all quadrilaterals are squares, however. 3. Parallelogram - all sides are parallel. NOT all parallelograms are squares, however.
Definition of complement of a set?
S', the complement of a set S, in the context of the universal set U, is the set of all elements of U that are not in S. It is important to note that a complement is defined only in terms of the universal set. The following, rather crude example illustrates the point. Suppose S is the set of all boys. Then S' may be the set of all girls if U = youngsters; or S' = set of all girls, women and men if U = people; or S' = set of all girls, women, men, dogs, cats, cows, ... if U = mammals; and so on. As you see, changing U alters S'.

What is the history of Pythagoras theorem?
The History of Pythagoras and his Theorem In this section you will learn about the life of Pythagoras and how it is that the theorem is known as the Pythagorean Theorem. Be aware that there are no good records about the life of Pythagoras, so the exact dates and other issues are not known with certainty. In addition, the names of some of the people as well as the places where Pythagoras lived may have different spellings. Pythagoras was born in the island of Samos in ancient Greece1. There is no certainty regarding the exact year when he was born, but it is believed that it was around 570 BC That is about 2,570 years ago! Those were times when a person believed in superstitions and had strong beliefs in gods, spirits, and the mysterious. Religious cults were very popular in those times.Pythagoras of Samos Pythagoras' father's name was Mnesarchus and may have been a Phoenician. His mother's name was Pythais. Mnesarchus made sure that his son would get the best possible education. His first teacher was Pherecydes, and Pythagoras stayed in touch with him until Pherecydes' death. When Pythagoras was about 18 years old he went to the island of Lesbos where he worked and learned from Anaximander, an astronomer and philosopher, and Thales of Miletus, a very wise philosopher and mathematician. Thales had visited Egypt and recommended that Pythagoras go to Egypt. Pythagoras arrived in Egypt around 547 BC when he was 23 years old. He stayed in Egypt for 21 years learning a variety of things including geometry from Egyptian priests . It was probably in Egypt where he learned the theorem that is now called by his name. By the time he was about 55 years old he returned to his native land and started a school on the island of Samos. However, because of the lack of students he decided to move to Croton in the south of Italy. In Croton he started a school which concentrated in the teaching and learning of Mathematics, Music, Philosophy, and Astronomy and their relationship with Religion. It is said that as many as 600 of the worthiest people in the city attended the school, including Theana whom he married when he was 60. The school reached its highest splendor around the year 490 BC. He taught the young to respect their elders and to develop their mind through learning. He emphasized justice based on equality. Calmness and gentleness were principles encouraged at the school. Pythagoreans became known for their close friendships and devotion to each other. More than anyone before him Pythagoras combined the spiritual teachings with the pursuit of knowledge and science. Pythagoras also headed a cult known as the secret brotherhood that worshiped numbers and numerical relationships. They attempted to find mathematical explanations for music, the gods, the cosmos, etc. Pythagoras believed that all relations could be reduced to number relations. At some point Pythagoras was exiled from Croton and had to move to Tarentum. After 16 years he had to move again, this time to Metapontus where he lived four years before he died at the age of 99. Here we have a picture of a statue of Phytagoras in the island of Samos. If you click on the figure you'll be able to see a larger picture. On the bottom of the statue the text is "". The literal translation is "Pythagoras the Samosan", but the preferred translation is "Pythagoras of Samos".

Pythagoras didn't have a middle name. Names and titles through history have evolved into many forms. Pythagoras of Samos tells up his name and where he was from--like Jesus of Nazareth. Your name is usually composed of a first name, often a second, and a family surname. The Chinese put the surname first--Mao Tse-Tung's family name was Mao. Some people use only one name like Cher. Some people use ridiculously long names that spell out all their family associations, titles, religious affiliations, you name it.
