  1. According to the definition, the Pythagoras Theorem formula is given as: Hypotenuse2 = Perpendicular2 + Base2. c2 = a2 + b2. The side opposite to the right angle (90°) is the longest side (known as Hypotenuse) because the side opposite to the greatest angle is the longest.

  2. It is called "Pythagoras' Theorem" and can be written in one short equation: a 2 + b 2 = c 2. Note: c is the longest side of the triangle; a and b are the other two sides; Definition. The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse", so the formal definition is:

  3. The Pythagorean Theorem relates the three sides in a right triangle. To be specific, relating the two legs and the hypotenuse, the longest side. The Pythagorean Theorem can be summarized in a short and compact equation as shown below.

  4. The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides a, b and the hypotenuse c, sometimes called the Pythagorean equation: a 2 + b 2 = c 2 . {\displaystyle a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}.} The theorem is named for the Greek philosopher Pythagoras , born around 570 BC.

  5. The Pythagoras theorem states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This theorem can be expressed as, c 2 = a 2 + b 2; where 'c' is the hypotenuse and 'a' and 'b' are the two legs of the triangle.

  6. The Pythagoras theorem, also known as the Pythagorean theorem, states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the lengths of other two sides of the right-angled triangle.

  7. The Pythagorean theorem states that if a triangle has one right angle, then the square of the longest side, called the hypotenuse, is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two shorter sides, called the legs.
