the formula is a squared + b squared = c squared
to find the hypotenuse (the longest side) find the square root of you previous answer.
He didn't find any theorem !!! However, the mathematical eq'n bearing his name was known to earlier civilisation , such as the Egyptians, and the Sumerians. However, he introduced and published his eq;n into the western civilisation. The eq'n is ;- h^(2) = a^(2) + b^(2) That is the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the other two sides squared. It only refers to right angled triangles.

Pythagoras' theorem is applicable to right angle triangles
~The Pythagoras theorem
I have never heard of it referred to as the hypotenuse-angle theorem . It is usually named the Pythagorean Theorem. In word the theorem is ' The hypotenuse squared is equal to the sume of the other two sides squared. Algebraically written as h^(2) = a^(1) + b^(2)
To find the length of the third side of a right-angled triangle.
Pythagoras invented the Pythagoras Theorem.
the
it relates to pythagoras theorem.
pythagoras made the famous pythagoras theorem and many more....
Pythagoras' theorem can be used for right-angled triangles. Using the theorem, you are able to calculate what the length of one side of a triangle is.
