When I was young and helping my Pa make the back porch he had me measure one side of the frame 4 feet then the other side 3 feet. He said that it was "square" when the distance between my two marks measured 5. 3 squared + 4 squared = 5 squared. That was the first time I used the Pythagorean Formula.
