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): c² = a² + b².

What does SOH-CAH-TOA stand for?

Back

SOH-CAH-TOA is a mnemonic to remember the definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios: SOH = Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse, CAH = Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, TOA = Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent.
