The Pythagorean Theorem explains (or permits calculation of) the length of one side of a right triangle if the lengths of the other two sides are known.
A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the three angles is a right angle (i.e. it has 90 degrees)
For that kind of triangle, if
A = the length of one of the sides making the right angle,
B = the length of the other side making the right triangle, and
C = the length of the side opposite to the right angle (also called the hypotenuse,
then C2 = A2 + B2

What is the standard form of the pythagorean theorem?
the standard form of the Pythagorean Theorem is :a2 + b2 = c2
What are the types of Pythagorean theorem?
The Pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 = c2
Who formulated pythagorean theorem?
The Pythagorean theorem gets its name from the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras. He was one of the first to offer proof of the theorem.
Does the Pythagorean theorem always work?
No it never works.

The Pythagorean theorem uses the right triangle.
What is a non-example of a Pythagorean theorem?
for what values the pytagoreag dose not work

All right angle triangles
How do you use a Pythagorean theorem with cube?
You can use pythagorean theorem twice to find the diagonal of a cube
What is the standard form of the pythagorean theorem?
the standard form of the Pythagorean Theorem is :a2 + b2 = c2
What are the types of Pythagorean theorem?
The Pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 = c2
Does the Pythagorean Theorem work on all triangles?
No, the pythagorean theorem only works on right triangles, but it will work on any right triangle. This is because the Pythagorean Theorem states that length of Leg A squared plus the length of Leg B Squared equals the length of the hypotenuse squared. A hypotenuse is always found opposite a right angle. Only right triangles have right angles; therefore, the Pythagorean Theorem only applies to right triangles. :D
