Questions and Answers

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

  • A² + B² = C², where A and B are the lengths of the legs of a right-angled triangle and C is the length of the hypotenuse (correct)
  • A + B + C = 180, where A, B, and C are the angles of a right-angled triangle
  • A + B = C, where A and B are the lengths of the legs of a right-angled triangle and C is the length of the hypotenuse
  • A² + B² = C, where A and B are the lengths of the legs of a right-angled triangle and C is the length of the hypotenuse

    • What does the Pythagorean theorem define?

  • The area of a right-angled triangle
  • The sum of the angles in a triangle
  • The relationship between the angles of a triangle

    Study Notes

    The Pythagorean Theorem

    • The Pythagorean theorem is a fundamental concept in geometry that describes the relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right-angled triangle.

    Definition of the Pythagorean Theorem

    • The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) of a right-angled triangle as equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b).

    Significance of the Pythagorean Theorem

    • The Pythagorean theorem has significant importance in various fields such as mathematics, physics, engineering, and architecture, as it provides a simple and efficient way to calculate distances and lengths in a wide range of problems.
