Answer 1

Pythagorean Theorem

Let's build up squares on the sides of a right triangle. Pythagoras' Theorem then claims that the sum of (the areas of) two small squares equals (the area of) the big one.

In algebraic terms, a2 + b2 = c2 where c is the hypotenuse while a and b are the legs of the triangle.

The theorem is of fundamental importance in the Euclidean Geometry where it serves as a basis for the definition of distance between two points. It's so basic and well known that, I believe, anyone who took geometry classes in high school couldn't fail to remember it long after other math notions got thoroughly forgotten.

Below is a collection of 69 approaches to proving the theorem. Some of the

Answer 2

Pythagorean Theorem : In any right triangle, square the length of each leg. Add the squares. That will equal the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).

Legs are 3" and 4". Hypotenuse is 5"
(3x3) + (4x4) = (5x5)

Answer 3

In any right triangle, the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypoteneuse.

If a and b are the lengths of the sides of a right angle triangle and c is the length of the hypoteneuse, then
c² = a² + b²

There are probably several thousand websites with drawings, etc. to go with this.
