This is a right Dr.K.Thiyagu, CUTN6
We call it a right triangle because it contains a right Dr.K.Thiyagu, CUTN7
The measure of a right angle is 90 o 90 Dr.K.Thiyagu, CUTN8
The little square 90 o in the angle tells you it is a right Dr.K.Thiyagu, CUTN9

What does this tell you about the areas of the three squares? The red square and the yellow square together cover the green square exactly. The square on the longest side is equal in area to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. A Pythagorean Dr.K.Thiyagu, CUTN25

Summary Pythagorean Theorem is A 2 + B 2 = C 2 Now you should have a good idea what the Pythagorean Theorem is and how it works. As you can see it is used in everyday life. We will be doing more work with it later Dr.K.Thiyagu, CUTN41
