FORGET it!!!
It didn't make any sense when Tom Baker said it as the fourth incarnation of Dr. Who in "Robot," either.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.
See the prof of Pythagoras's theorem in any textbook on elementary geometry.
In a right triangle the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides
To calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. So, the hypotenuse would be the square root of (0.024^2 + 0.007^2), which is approximately 0.025.
Augustus Pythagoras: let the equal sides be 1 unit. The square of the third side, which is the hypotenuse, is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, in this case 12 and 12, a total of 2. The hypotenuse is therefore equal to the square root of two.
The square of the hypotenuse is equal to the length of the hypotenuse times itself. This is also equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides in a right triangle.
A right triangle only has two legs, the third side is called the hypotenuse . The square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs. The square root of the difference of the square of the hypotenuse and the square of one leg is equal to the length of the other leg.
Pythagorean Theorem: In a right triangle, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.Converse: If the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides of a triangle, then it is a right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.
The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle ("h") is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of the right triangle ("a" and "b"): h2 = a2 + b2. hypotenuse is equal to square root of a2+b2.
Sure, place a triangle's hypotenuse (longest side) on the other triangle's hypotenuse, that will give either a square or a rectangle. Then place the square on one end of the rectangle. For this to work though, the length of the square's side HAS to equal the length of the triangles hypotenuses, and likewise each triangle's hypotenuse much equal the length of a side of the square. Hope this is clear.
Well, there are 3 sides, and if you are given the length of 2 of the 3 sides, you can calculate the other one. The longest side of the triangle is called the "Hypotenuse" and to calculate the hypotenuse you take the lengths of the other sides, square each of them, then add. Take the square root of the answer and that is the length of the hypotenuse. Now if you have the length of the hypotenuse and either of the other two sides, take the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the other known side, square each of them, add them, then the square root of the sum will equal the remaining side.

pythagoras
you square the hypotenuse and find two numbers when squared and then added together equal the hypotenuse squared then the numbers before they were squared are the two legs
There is a famous theorem that you use to solve this problem, namely the Pythagorean theorem which says that the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the opposite sides. (The hypotenuse is the longest side; the other sides are commonly called legs.) If you know the hypotenuse and one leg you can find the other leg by simple algebra. Just subtract the square of the leg you know from the square of the hypotenuse and take the square root of this difference. Bingo! You have your answer.
