How do you use Pythagorean theorem when you only know one side of the triangle?
Since the Pythagorean theorem has 3 variables (the 3 sides), and you only know one variable, you cannot use it to solve for the other 2 variables. Do you know any other information (like angles)? that can be used to solve the triangle (you would not be using the Pythagorean theorem, though). Did they mark the 2 legs with little 'tick marks' denoting that they are equal? Then you could use the Pythagorean theorem because then you know 2 varaibles, and you can solve for the third variable.
How do you use a Pythagorean theorem with cube?
You can use pythagorean theorem twice to find the diagonal of a cube
Who named the pythagorean theorem?
pythagorean theorem was named from a greek mathemition called pythagorus (I think that's how you spell it)
What is the difference in the distance formula and the Pythagorean theorem?
The difference in the distance formula and the pythagorean theorem is that the distance formula finds the distance between two points while the pythagorean theorem usually finds the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
Who created the pythagorean theorem?
Pythagoras
How many different ways are there to solve the Pythagorean theorem?
a2 + b2 = c2
The pythagorean theorem can be used to solve what?
the unknown measurement of a side of a triangle
How do you solve of the vectors by graphical method?
Pythagorean theorem: A2 + B2 = C2

How do you solve a pythagorean theorem?
The formula is A2 + B2 = C2. This theorem only works for right triangles. A and B are the legs and C is the hypotenuse.
Was the Pythagorean Theorem proven?
Oh yes, the Pythagorean Theorem has been proven.
What shape does the Pythagorean theorem use?
The Pythagorean theorem uses the right triangle.
How do you find the height of a triangle with a base of 16meters and the side that is not the height 18meters?
If it is a right triangle, use the Pythagorean theorem. If it is iscossolese or scalene, draw line down middle, use pythagorean theorem to solve for missing side.
How do you find the slant height of a 6 sided pyramid?
if you know the height and the apothem, use pythagorean theorem to solve for it.
What can you solve in the Pythagorean theorem?
Given the lengths of two sides of a right triangle, you can find the length of the other side.
Is it possible to solve a right triangle without using Pythagorean theorem?
Yes simply with a protractor and a measuring device.
What are the aspects of Pythagoras theorem?
There are 19 various aspects of Pythagoras theorem. Pythagorean Theorem (1) Pythagoras Theorem(2) Pythagorean Theorem (3) Pythagorean Theorem (4) Pythagoras Theorem(5) Pythagorean Theorem(6) Pythagrean Theorem(7) Pythagoras Theorem(8) Pythagorean Theorem (9) Hyppocrates' lunar Minimum Distance Shortest Distance Quadrangular Pyramid (1) Quadrangular Pyramid (2) Origami Two Poles Pythagoras Tree(1) Pythagoras Tree(2) Theorem by Pappus
