There is no exact time that has been traced to Pythagoras writing this theorem. In fact, there are many who question whether the theorem was not created hundreds of years before Pythagoras. Pythagoras is widely thought to have lived from 569-475 BC, so it would be safe to assume that he would be credited sometime around this time period.
