Did Pythagoras discover the formula for finding the hypnotenuse of a triangle?
Yes, it's called Pythagoras theorem
What is Pythagoras's formula?
It's c2=a2+b2 where c is the hypotenuse (longest side), a and b are the other sides, it helps find if it's a right-angle triangle.
What is the formula Pythagoras is famous for?
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
How do you find the hypotenuse of a right triangle when only a side length and angle is given?
Dependent on what side you are given you would use Sin(Θ) = Opposite/Hypotenuse just rearrange the formula to Hypotenuse = Opposite/Sin(Θ). Or if you are given the adjacent side use Cosine(Θ)=Adjacent/Hypotenuse, then: Hypotenuse = Adjacent/Cosine(Θ)
How do you calculate Pythagoras theorem?
The theorem uses a side called the "hypotenuse" this is the longest side of any triangle. The formula is x= nn + mm (x is the hypotenuse and n and m are the other sides) Lets say the sides were 3 and 4. x = 3x3 + 4x4 x = 9 + 16 x = 25. This is NOT the finished result, as we still have to SQUARE ROOT this. 25 square rooted is 5. So the sides are 3, 4 and 5
Did Pythagoras discover the formula for finding the hypnotenuse of a triangle?
Yes, it's called Pythagoras theorem
Did Pythagoras discover the formula for finding the hyptenuse of a triangle?
No but traditionally it is accredited to him
What is Pythagoras best remembered for?
Pythagoras is most famous for discovering Pythagoras' Theorem, which is a formula for finding lengths of sides on a right angled triangle. The formula is: a2+b2= c2 where c is the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle) and a and b are the shorter sides.
Who discovered the formula for hypotenuse of a triangle?
Sounds like you mean Pythagoras.
Formula for finding the hypotenuse of a triangle?
The formula of the hypotenuse (the longest side of the triangle) is the other two lengths squared and added together.
What is the hypotenuse formula when you know the height and base?
If it is a right angled triangle then this is known as Pythagoras' theorem: height2+base2 = hypotenuse2 ⇒ hypotenuse = √(height2 + base2)
THE actual formula of Pythagoras theorem?
a2+b2=c2Where c is the hypotenuse. a and b are the other two sides.
What contribution did the Pythagoras do in math?
He is best known for publishing the theory of how to calculate the length of the hypotenuse on a right angled triangle, using the formula: a2+b2=c2 where c is the hypotenuse
Whose formula for triangles says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides?
Pythagoras' theorem
What describes Pythagoras' contribution?
Discover of a Mathematical formula to relate the sides of a right triangle.
Who invented the formula of Pythagoras?
The formula was never invented but it was discovered by the ancient mathematicians who found that for any right angle triangle the square if its hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of it sides. Nowadays it's known as Pythagoras' theorem and the formula is:- a2+b2 = c2 whereas a and b are the sides of the right angle triangle with c being its hypotenuse or longest side
What is the formula of right triangle given one side and the area finding the hypotenuse?
1/2*base*height = area Multipiy both sides by 2 and then divide both sides by the given value which then will give the value of the other side. Use Pythagoras' theorem to find the hypotenuse:- a2+b2 = c2
