Pythagorus
What describes the relationship between the lengths of the legs and the hypotenuse in a right triangle?
The square of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. a2+b2 = c2 where a and b are the legs and c being the hypotenuse

What is the pythagorean thereom used in?
Euclidean geometry. It describes the relationship between the length of the sides in a right triangle.
How do you know if a triangle is a right triangle using the pythagorean therom?
We know that a right triangle is a triangle having a right angle, where the side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse, and the perpendicular sides are the legs of the right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem gives the relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangles. In the case where you know only the measure lengths of the sides of a triangle, you need to test these measures. If one of the sides of the triangle has a square measure equal to the sum of the square measures of two other sides, then this side is called the hypotenuse and opposite to this side is a 90 degree angle, which is a right angle. So, you can say that this triangle is a right triangle. Pythagorean triple are very helpful to determine a right triangle, such as: (3, 4, 5), (5,12,13), (8, 15, 17), (7, 24, 25), and (20, 21, 29).
