Since the Pythagorean theorem is named after the Greek mathematician Pythagoras, it was reasonable to assume that he is the first person to have it.
The Pythagorean theorem gets its name from the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras. He was one of the first to offer proof of the theorem.
Pythagoras was a Greek philosopher and mathematician who proved the Pythagorean theorem; considered to be the first true mathematician (circa 580-500 BC)
Although it is often argued that knowledge of the theorem predates him, the theorem is named after the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras (c. 570 - c. 495 BC) as it is he who, by tradition, is credited with its first recorded proof.
The Pythagorean theorem was, oddly enough, first postulated by a Greek named Pythagoras of Samos, in the 6th century BC or so. It basically described the relationship among the three sides of a triangle and the areas of the same. There is some thought that Babylonian mathematicians well before the time of Pythagoras knew of the relationship, but he's the guy who got his name on the theorem.

I believe that you are thinking of the Pythagorean Theorem which was produced by Pythagoras.
He didn't name it. It is named after Pythagoras because he first developed the theorem.
It depends on the country, the school's curriculum, etc. The Pythagorean theorem is generally first taught in a high school geometry course, but it is often covered in middle school as well.
First of all, it's Pythagoras. One of it in Geometry. The Pythagorean Theorem.
The Pythagorean Theorem derived its named from Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician who is credited for the formula. However, a recent study showed that ancient cultures have already proved the formula long before any of the Greeks did.
The origin of this theorem has been lost in antiquity. It is doubtful that Pythagoras, or even the Pythagorean society discovered it . It has been known "forever", like the wheel. There surely was a time when it was not known, but nobody can pick out a individual who first used it.

The distance from home plate to first base is 90 feet and the distance from first base to second base is also 90 feet making a right angle; you can calculate how far the catcher needs to throw to 2nd base from home by Pythagorean theorem. Answer is 127.3 feet
