The pythagorean theorem is a+b=c. So, a+b equals two of the three sides. Using your knowledge of what those two sides are will help you with figuring out the third side, but technically, the pythagorean theorem is used only for right triangles. a and b are the two straight sides and c is the diagonal side. your welcome.

you can't, because the Pythagorean theorem is for right triangles and the triangles formed by the diagonal of a parallelogram are not right triangles.
The Pythagorean theorem, which is the square root of the sum of the squares of two sides of a right triangle is equal to the hypotenuse, can be used to find the distance between two points. This means that it can also be used to find the equation of a line.
You use the pythagorean theorem.
Find this using the Pythagorean theorem (a=(1/2 * 8) b=the altitude c = 6).
If the lengths of the sides of the triangle can be substituted for 'a', 'b', and 'c'in the equationa2 + b2 = c2and maintain the equality, then the lengths of the sides are a Pythagorean triple, and the triangle is a right one.

14cm and 11cm what is the missing side using pythagorean theorem
You use the pythagorean theorem.
????
Yes simply with a protractor and a measuring device.
If the sides of a right angle triangle are 6 feet and 8 feet then by using Pythagoras' theorem the hypotenuse will be 10 feet
When drawing a vector using the triangle method you will draw in the resultant vector using Pythagorean theorem. This is taught in physics.
If you know two sides of a right triangle, the Pythagorean Formula lets you find the third side. Also, if you know all three sides of a triangle, you can confirm whether it is, or isn't, a right triangle.
Since the Pythagorean theorem has 3 variables (the 3 sides), and you only know one variable, you cannot use it to solve for the other 2 variables. Do you know any other information (like angles)? that can be used to solve the triangle (you would not be using the Pythagorean theorem, though). Did they mark the 2 legs with little 'tick marks' denoting that they are equal? Then you could use the Pythagorean theorem because then you know 2 varaibles, and you can solve for the third variable.
Yes. Using Pythagorean's theorem: 202+212 = 400+441 = 841 = 292 = 841
Yes.
