What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b). It is expressed as: c² = a² + b².

What is the value of c if a = 6 cm and b = 8 cm?

Back

10 cm (c = √(6² + 8²) = √(36 + 64) = √100 = 10 cm).

If a triangle has sides of lengths 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm, is it a right triangle?

Back

Yes, because 5² + 12² = 25 + 144 = 169 = 13².
