If all three sides of a triangle have a measure of 6 what is the measure of the altitude?
Use Pythagoreans theorem (a=3 b=the altitude c=6).
Why does Pythagoreans theorem work for right triangles?
Its a special relationship that was observed by Pythogorous. It just kind of works
Does a rectangle have diagonals of equal length?

A2 B2C2 is pythagoreans theorem true or false?
True.its a2 +b2 = c2 (only works with right triangles, c is the hypotenuse)
