Answer 1

well a pythagorean triangle is a right angle one, and its asquared+bsquared=csquared

Answer 2

huh?

Answer 3

a pythagorean triangle is always a right triangle (it's angle is 90 degrees)
and the thereom is \[a^2+b^2=c^2\]
That should help you solve it

Answer 4

the csquared is the hypotenuse, which is the longest side of a triangle (the slanted)

Answer 8

think of it like this; the legs or first two numbers, then add them and if you get the third number, or hypotenuse, then you are correct. For example: 59, 41, and 100 is a Pythagorean triple or triangle because 59+41=100. here's a calc: http://www.algebra.com/calculators/geometry/pythagorean.mpl
