What does the Pythagorean theorem state and which triangle does it apply to?
This particular theorem states that the sum of the squares of the two sides of a triangle always equals to the square of the hypotenuse or the biggest side of the triangle. It applies only to right triangles. Right triangles have only one right angle and is always opposite to the hypotenuse.
The S's in the SSS Similarity Theorem state that two triangles are similar if they have three proportional what?
Sides
When can you use Pythagorean Theorem to solve a problem please state all the possible answers?
to find the unknown length of the longest side in a right angled triangle provided the length of the other two sides is known.
How do you use the pythagorean theorem to show what happens to the hypotenuse when the length of the legs is doubled?
The Pythagorean Theorem is A2 + B2 = C2 so: 1. State the formula. - A2 + B2 = C2 2. Double A or B it doesn't matter. - (2A)2 + B2 = C2 3. Simplify. - 4A2+ B2 = C2 4. This is were you must be stuck. Sorry, I can't remember at the moment what you do next. I think that there is probably a formula for doubling one of the sides on Google.
What does pythagarean theorem state?
In a right triangle the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides
