PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

SEQUOIA CLARK I will transfer current knowledge of the

Pythagorean theorem

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

Right triangle

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

NAMES OF THE RIGTH TRIANGLE

This is A

This is B

This is C

when you label it here's what it should look like

WHEN YOU LABEL IT

A

B

C

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

THE FORMuAL

A + B = C

2 2 2

the Pythagorean theorem with the triangle

PYTHAGOREN WITH TIRANGLE

A

B

C

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

EXAMPLE

5

7

c2 2 2

5+7= cHow to solve the problem

49

74

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

Finding the square root

74 = C 2

8.06

C = 8.06
