Pythagorean Theorem By: Kierra Reber period 6 extra credit

Definition The Pythagorean Theorem is the relationship between the sides of a right triangle.

Formula The formula for the Pythagorean Theorem is: A SQ + B SQ = C SQ

Discovery The first person to recognize the relationship between the two sides of a right triangle was a Greek mathematician named Pythagoras

Hypotenuse The side opposite of the right angle.

Legs The two sides that form the right angle. The legs are usually referred to as A and B.

Use You can use the Pythagorean theorem to find any side of a right triangle.

Example steps 1 and 2 If you leg A is 5in you square it and it is 25in. Then you take leg B that is 4in and you square it and it is 16in. 4in 5 in ?

Example step 3 The last step is to add the 25 and 16 together which is 41. Then you find the square root and it makes about 6.4. So that is the answer 5 in 4in ?=6.4

THE END!
