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 can be expressed as: a² + b² = c².

What is the relationship between the areas of the squares in a Pythagorean Theorem model?

Back

The area of the square on the hypotenuse (c²) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides (a² + b²).

If a = 5 and b = 12, what is the length of the hypotenuse (c)?

Back

Using the Pythagorean Theorem: c = √(5² + 12²) = √(25 + 144) = √169 = 13.
