How to Use and Prove the Pythagorean Theorem

The video tutorial covers the Pythagorean theorem, starting with its historical background and key vocabulary related to right triangles. It explains the theorem's formula and provides a visual proof using graph paper. The tutorial then demonstrates how to apply the theorem to find missing sides of right triangles, with examples and exercises for practice. The lesson concludes with a summary and encouragement for further exploration.
