Pythagorean Theorem  What is it and how does it work?  a 2 + b 2 = c 2  What is it and how does it work?  a 2 + b 2 = c 2

What is the Pythagorean Theorem?  the sum of the squares of the lengths of the sides of a right triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse  a 2 + b 2 = c 2  the sum of the squares of the lengths of the sides of a right triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse  a 2 + b 2 = c 2

Quick Hints  C in the Pythagorean Theorem is always the hypotenuse.  Review; The hypotenuse is the side opposite of the right angle in a right triangle.  A and B in the Pythagorean Theorem are the two remaining sides. No specific side for either variable.  C in the Pythagorean Theorem is always the hypotenuse.  Review; The hypotenuse is the side opposite of the right angle in a right triangle.  A and B in the Pythagorean Theorem are the two remaining sides. No specific side for either variable.
