What shape does the pythagorean theorem apply to?
A right angle triangle.
What must you do to non-perpendicular vectors before you can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the resultant of the vectors?
You must find the x and y components of each vector. Then you add up the like x components and the like y components. Using your total x component and total y component you may then apply the pythagorean theorem.
What do you use to find the horizontal distance between two points?
The Pythagorean Theorem. Consider the right triangle including the two points and a third point having the same x coordinate as one and the same y coordinate as the other. Apply the Pythagorean theorem. For (x1, y1) and (x2,y2): dist. = sqrt((x1-x2)2 + (y1-y2)2)
The side of a right triangle oppossite the right angle?
that is called the hypotenuse. If you have the measurements of the first to sides, you can apply the pythagorean theorem to find out the hyp. the formula is a^2+b^2=c^2
