Pythagoras theorem

Front

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

The square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

Front

What is the formula for the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

a² + b² = c², where c is the length of the hypotenuse.
