1. SEQUOIA CLARK I will transfer current knowledge of the Pythagorean theorem

2.  right triangle has a 90 degree angles and it has a right angle that’s why its called a right triangle

3.  the different sides of the right triangle has its own name those parts are called legs there's leg A,B,and C This is A This is B This is C

4.  when you label it here's what it should look like A B C

5. if you want to find the area of those sides you have to use this formula right here and this formula is called Pythagorean theorem A + B = C 22 2

6. the Pythagorean theorem with the triangle A B C

7. for example say leg a was 5 and leg b was 7 and the missing part was c. So then you will get your formula and set up 5 +7 = c 5 7 c 222

8. 5+7= c 222 25 + 49 74

9.  But wait before you find out the square root of 74 you have to take it from both sides the c square and the 74 and it equals 8.60 so c square equals 8.06 25+49 74 = C 2 8.06 C = 8.06 2
