A spelling mistake

It's THEOREM

I think you mean PYTHAGOREAN - which is the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle

Sum of squares on shortest sides = square of longest

In a triangle where one of the angles is precisely 90 degrees, the sum of the square of the two sides connected by the right angle is equal to the square of the third side.

If you ever watch the original "Wizard of Oz", listen when the Scarecrow gets a brain. His first words are to state the Pythagorean Theorem, except that he gets it wrong.

The Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
In english, the square of the hypoteneuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Pythagorean theorem
In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides other than the hypotenuse).
otherwise:
a (squared) plus b(squared)=c(squared)

You spelled it wrong.

A^2+b^2=c^2

the two shorter sides squared = the square of the longest side
