The Pythagorean therom will only work on right triangles because a right triangle is the only triangle with a hypotenuse and a right angle. What kind of triangle???

How does the therom work!! The Pythagorean threom is a work ethic used to find the area of a right triangle. First you find the length of the two legs or the shortest part of the triangle and use those two numbers to find the length of the hypotenuse. hypotenuse Leg leg

The Pythagorean therom A2+b2+=c2

Pythagorean therom problem 5 inches 3 inches First you square the first and second leg and the you add the two sums of the numbers and find the square root of the sum and then you will find the length of the hypotenuse. 10^2+5^2=c =125 C^2= inches

Why do we use the therom??? People use the Pythagorean therom to find the area of a right triangle which also has an angle that is 90 degrees. 90 degrees angle 60 degrees 30 degrees

Why should we use the therom? We should use the Pythagorean therom because without the therom we would not know how to find the are of a right triangle and we would be finding the area of different triangles.
