What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides: a² + b² = c².

What is the relationship between sine and cosine?

Back

sin(θ) = cos(90° - θ). This means the sine of an angle is equal to the cosine of its complement.
