The Pythagorean Theorem refers to the mathematical relationship between the three sides of any right triangle.
"In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle).
In other words, if you know the length of two of the sides (the two legs), then the length of the third side (the hypotenuse) can be determined using the following formula:
a2 + b2 = c2

How do you solve phythagoras theorem?
Pythagoras' theorem can be applied to right angled triangles. C2 = A2 + B2 C is the hypotenuse of the triangle. A and B are the two other sides of the triangle (it does not matter which side you call A and which you call B).
Why is phythagoras famous?
He was a scientist that discovered the Phythagoras Theorum, A,squared + B,squared = c,squared.
How do you find the pythagorean theorem of a triangle?
The Pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 = c2. It is used for right triangles. If you know two of the sides, you can use the theorem to find the third side.
What theorem is used to find the lengths of the sides of any right triangle?
Pythagoras' theorem
