Pythagoras' theorem is used to find any of the 3 sides of a right angle triangle if the 2 other sides are known.
You cannot.
The Pythagorean theorem gets its name from the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras. He was one of the first to offer proof of the theorem.
The Pythagorean theorem only includes right triangles
Yes.
The Pythagorean theorem uses the right triangle.
Oh yes, the Pythagorean Theorem has been proven.
No. The Pythagorean theorem applies only to right triangles...those containing a right angle (90 degrees).
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. But only right triangles.
The Pythagorean Theorem applies only to right triangles. (But they don't prove it.)

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
