Pythagoras was an Ionic Greek Philosopher who went on to create the religious movement Pythagoreanism. Pythagorus is known as a mystic, mathematician, and scientist who is best known for Pythagorean theorem. This theorem is used in mathematics, which says that in any right triangle (a triangle with a right angle opposite a hypotenuse) the sides of the two legs (sides "a" and "b") squared and added together will equal the length of the hypotenuse squared, thus: a^2+b^2=c^2 (^meaning power, or "a-squared+b-squared=c-squared).
Pythagoras was an advanced Greek mathematician for his time. His impact was his discovering the numerical ratios of intervals in the music scales along with his theorem that the square on the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Amazing for ancient times.
