It's Pythagoras, actually.

How did he formulate it? Something like this:

'The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two legs.'

But he said it in Greek, naturally.

Several proofs of this world-shaking proposition are found in plane geometry, and it would be worth your while to investigate them.

How does 1 plus 5 plus 6 equal 151?

This is the answer to "How does 1 plus 5 plus 6 equal 151?". Using mathematics, 1 plus 5 plus 6 equals 12. Everyone knows that. But your question does not stipulate that we MUST use mathematics to find the solution. So, I suggest using the following methods to find the solution: A.) First you must state that this is a Game. Then you must declare the rules to the game as follows: Rule-1) Any time a number is over 5 we subtract five from that number. For example, a 9 would automatically be a 4. Rule-2) The word "plus" does not imply the mathematical property of addition, it instead implies the combination of two items in succession. For example. 3 plus 4 equals 34. With only these two simple rules, you have your solution. 1 plus 5 plus 6 (after following Rule-1) becomes 1 plus 5 plus 1. 1 plus 5 plus 1 (after following Rule-2) becomes 151. Success !
