Pythagoras' Theorem

1. hi

2. What is the Pythagoras' Theorem?

2.1. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

3. REAL LIFE APPLICATION OF PYTHAGORAS' THEOREM

3.1. Choosing the right size suitcase, television, computer etc. (calculate diagonal length)

4. Since the fourth century AD, Pythagoras has commonly been given credit for discovering the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem is a theorem in geometry that states that in a right-angled triangle the area of the square on the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares of the other two sides.
