Pythagoras’ theorem can also be used to find the length of another side of a triangle using the hypotenuse. The square on the hypotenuse subtracted by the square on another side is equal to the ...

What it means is that in a right triangle (where one angle equals 90°), the sum of the squares of two sides equals the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side).

In an extraordinary achievement that has stunned the global mathematics community, two high school students from Louisiana ...

Their accomplishment adds to the rich history of proofs of the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled ...

Pythagoras' theorem close Pythagoras' theoremPythagoras's theorem applies to right-angled triangles. The area of the square drawn on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares drawn on the ...
