hiya, well... the pythagorean triple comes from the mathmatician who sat in the sand on a beach drawing triangles with a stick,then one day it came to him that the smallest side of a triangle squared plus the middle length of the triangle squared = the longest side of a triangle squared ... he also made a general rule for this which is.. A squared + B squared = C squared eg. 3,4,5 its called pythagorean because the mans name was pythagoras.:) sorry about how long i answered its for people who are'nt sure what pythagorean is :)
What else can I help you with?
Sets of Pythagorean triples?
3,4,5 1,2,3 these are sets of pythagorean triples
Converse of Pythagorean Theorem?
The Pythagorean Theorem allows the mathematician to determine the value of the hypotenuse. The converse of the Pythagorean Theorem manipulates the formula so that the mathematician can use the values to determine that if the triangle is a right triangle.
What is the pythagorean principle?
The pythagorean principle is A squared + B squared = C squared. This is applyed when solving side lengths of triangles.
What is the form of the Pythagorean triple generator?
If p and q are integers, then a = p2 - q2 b = 2pq, and c = p2 + q2 form a Pythagorean triple. Furthermore, if p and q are co-prime then the triple is primitive Pythagorean.
What is the difference between the pythagorean theorem and the converse of the pythagorean theorem?
The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c, a2 + b2 = c2. The converse of the Pythagorean theorem states that, if in a triangle with sides a, b, c, a2 + b2 = c2 then the triangle is right and the angle opposite side c is a right angle.
What is the pythagorean theorem and where did it come from?
The Pythagorean Theorem is used to find side lengths of right triangles. It came from the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras.
How can you make a sentence with the word pythagorean?
usually Pythagorean is named after pythagoras
What set of numbers is a pythagorean triangle?
Pythagorean triplets
Sets of Pythagorean triples?
3,4,5 1,2,3 these are sets of pythagorean triples
Is a pythagorean triplet?
The numbers of 3, 4 and 5 are an example of a Pythagorean triplet
What did Pythagoras do in his daily life?
In his Pythagorean Brotherhood , they would try to come up with new ways of doing maths all the time.
Pythagoras was best known for the pythagorean what?
Pythagoras was well known for the Pythagorean Theorem.
What shape does the Pythagorean theorem use?
The Pythagorean theorem uses the right triangle.
Was the Pythagorean Theorem proven?
Oh yes, the Pythagorean Theorem has been proven.
How many Pythagorean triples are there?
Since there are an infinite amount of whole numbers to make Pythagorean triples, there would be an infinite amount of Pythagorean triples to make.
How do you find a pythagorean triple?
There are infinitely many Pythagorean triples. To find a Pythagorean triple take two positive integers x, y with x > y. A Pythagorean triple is of the form x2 - y2, 2xy, x2 + y2.
How did the Pythagorean theorem come about?
It was noticed by ancient mathematicians that for any right angle triangle that when its hypotenuse is squared it is equal to the sum of its squared sides.
