Better for what??? Actually, both are closely related. The distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem.

Why is Pythagoras famouse?
Discovered the pythagorean therom
What is the Pythagorean therom?
a2+b2=c2
What is Pythagoras most famous for?
Pythagorean and therom. a2 + b2 = c2
What is the format of the pythagorean therom?
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
How do you solve the pythagorean therom that invovles two variables?
Not sure how to put it. The Pythagorean therom states that a squared plus b squared equals c squared. Aren't a, b and c all variables?
Who invented the pathagarium's therom?
Greek mathematician Pythagoras had invented the Pythagorean Theorem.
What are three mathematical discoveries Pythagoras made?
pytagoras made one that i know of and that is the pythagorean therom
What time period was the Pythagoras therom formed?
The Pythagorean theorem was formed in Ancient Greece between 570 and 495 BC (Pythagoras' lifetime).
Why are formulas important in the real world?
pythagorean therom (a squared plus b squared = c squared), and basically all perimeter and area formuals
In pick's therom can you find the area by not using formula?
no,we can divide the figure into squares,rectangles and triangles
How do you find the slant height of a triangular prism?
use the Pythagorean therom ... C2=A2+B2 draw a little triangle name your sides and use the therom to solve for the hypotenuse which is c....... This means that your slant would be the hypotenuse in the therom thus the square root of c is equal to the square root of side a plus the square root of side be it's best just to use a scientific calculator
How do you know if a triangle is a right triangle using the pythagorean therom -?
Pythagoras' theorem states that for any right angle triangle the square of its hypotenuse is equal to the sum of its squared sides as in the following formula:- a squared + b squared = c squared whereas a and b are the sides of the triangle with c being its hypotenuse
