What is Pythagoras triplet?
It's a set of three numbers that could be the lengths of the sides of a right triangle. In order for them to work that way, the squares of the two smaller ones have to add up to the square of the largest one.
How To Work Out The Area Of A Trapezium?
Area = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height There also is a little rhyme to help you remember that i leanreed in year 7: half the sum of the parallel sides times the distance between them thats the way that i found out the area of a trapezium; sung in the way of the pied piper song.
How long must a ladder be to reach the top of a 13 foot?
This isn't hard to figure out if you know how far you want the base of the ladder from the wall. All you have to do is use the Pythagorean Theorem. The theorem is A2 + B2 = C2. A and B are the short sides and C is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle). When dealing with a ladder, the ladder is the hypotenuse, or the C in the equation. Another way to put the formula is to multiply A by itself and B by itself, add them together, then take the square root of the result. Decide how far you want the base of the ladder from the building. Multiply that by itself then add that to 169 (that is the square of 13). Then take the square root of that and you get the ideal ladder height. Lets assume 5 feet from the wall. The square of that is 25. 169 plus 25 gives 194. The square root of 194 is 13.928, and we would round up to 14 feet. If you mean a step ladder, and you are trying to reach a ceiling, then you would need roughly the height of the room minus your own height. You might want to add a tad more. You could make it shorter, but that would not be wise, since you should always avoid the top two steps if possible.

Who are the famous mathematicians in trigonometry?
Pythagoras was the most pivotal mathematician in the area of trigonometry. His pythagoras theorem literally redefined the way people studied right angled triangles.
Did fermat help Pythagoras make the pythagorean theorem?
No. Fermat was born in the 17th century, but Pythagoras died in about the 5th century BC, so there's no way Fermat could have helped him apart from going back in time.
How do you find the hypotenuse if theres fractions?
The same way that you find the hypotenuse in the case of integers or decimals. If a triangle has a right triangle, use Pythagoras' Theorem.
Where was the Pythagorean theorem invented?
This theorem was not invented so much as evolved. All mathematical proofs and theorems evolve from simple math to more complex math. The related Wikipedia article explores and explains the history of this theorem.In short...Pythagoras, whose dates are commonly given as 569-475 BC, used algebraic methods to construct Pythagorean triples, according to Proklos's commentary on Euclid. Proklos, however, wrote between 410 and 485 AD. According to Sir Thomas L. Heath, there was no attribution of the theorem to Pythagoras for five centuries after Pythagoras lived. However, when authors such as Plutarch and Cicero attributed the theorem to Pythagoras, they did so in a way which suggests that the attribution was widely known and undoubted.Pythagoras was Greek and lived in Greece, so it can be assumed that he completed the theorem in Greece.
Why in right angle triangles is it called Pythagoras theorem when it is in actual fact known before his time?
It is called Pythagoras' theorem because it's impossible to find the exact length of the hypotenuse of a right angle isosceles triangle which is an irrational number in the same way that it is impossible to find the exact area of a circle because the value of pi is also an irrational number.

What is the distance of a triangle all the way round?
It is the sum of all three sides. If you are only given 2 sides, you may need to use pythagoras' theorem, and if you are given an angle and a side you may need to use trigonometry.

Who discovered a way to solve for the longest side in a right triangle?
The usual answer is Pythagoras, but that is not completely correct. Clay tablets from China show that the Pythagorean Theorem was taught there 950 years before Pythagoras was born! The method was also known in the Americas, Egypt, east Africa, India, and elsewhere long before being 'discovered' by the Greek mathematician.
