The formula for the Pythagorean Theorem is a2+b2=c2 :] The Pythagorean Theorem is finding the measurements in a right triangle. The side of the triangle across from the right angle is called the hypotenuse and the two other sides are called the legs :3 I hope I could help! <3

Is the phythagorean theorem the exact measurement?

Yes, the Pythagorean theorem gives the exact measurements always. It can be backed up by proofs and sin, cosine, etc.


What is the importance of phythagorean theorem in studying triangles?

If you know the length of 2 sides of a triangle, you can always find the length of the third using Pythag. Pretty neat!


How do you use Phythagorean theorem?

When I was young and helping my Pa make the back porch he had me measure one side of the frame 4 feet then the other side 3 feet. He said that it was "square" when the distance between my two marks measured 5. 3 squared + 4 squared = 5 squared. That was the first time I used the Pythagorean Formula.


What is the phythagorean theorem?

If you have two straight lines AB and BC such that the two lines meet at B and AB and BC make 90 degrees with each other then the pythagorean theory (theoram) states that the length of line AC (assume that points A and C are joined by a straight line) then (AC) squared = (AB) squared +(BC) squared

Why is the right angle triangle theorem named after pythagorus when Egyptian were using it to build the great pyramids 1500 year before he was born?

phythagorean theorema squared plus b squared equals c squaredImproved Answer:A possible explanation is that although the ancient Egyptians knew that in a right angled triangle 32+42 = 52 Pythagoras was the first person to suggest that pi*1.52+pi*2 = pi*2.52 (the areas of each sides as circles) but because no one knew then and even today knows the correct value of pi it became to be known as Pythagoras' Theorem.


Can a theorem be proven using a corollary?

No, a corollary follows from a theorem that has been proven. Of course, a theorem can be proven using a corollary to a previous theorem.
