Question

How to do The Pythagorean theory. *Just in case people ever have a question for it*.


Basics; The Pythagorean theory only works with right-angled triangles.

Used for; The Pythagorean theory is used to see whether the triangle has a right angle or not.

How to; In the picture below is what I will be based off of.

Okay let's make the 8 a, the 6 b, and the 10 c. So how we find out if it is a right-angled triangle or not is by doing a^2 + b^2 = c^2. So a^2=64, b^2=36, and c^2=100. Now we add 64 + 36= 100 and c^2=100 so we know it is a right-angled triangle.

If this does not make sense I will provide another picture of how to do so.

Answer 1

It's quite simple once you have some sort of understanding of this, if you have questions DM me.

Answer 2

Nicely written and accurate, bro I honestly forgot about this


Any chance you will do any guide on piecewise functions?

Answer 3

Thank you, also maybe in the future I could c:

Answer 4

This is pretty good, but it's called the Pythagorean Theorem, not theory.

Other than, you did a pretty good job!

Answer 5

But it's not only used to determine if a triangle is a right triangle, but to also find 1 side if given the other 2 if you know for a fact the triangle is a right triangle

Answer 6

(I said what I was doing with it, I didn't say that's ALL you could do with it and it can be called theory depending on how you're saying it, since you clearly didn't know it's fine c: )

Answer 7

I luv it

Answer 8

well done rylee

Answer 9

nice

Answer 10

im actually doing this in class and its soo easy when u actually know the steps

Answer 11

Thanks!

Answer 12

lwk hate math ngl
