To solve the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled 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, you can follow these steps:
1. Identify which side is the hypotenuse and label it with "c." The other two sides will be labeled as "a" and "b."
2. Determine the lengths of the two shorter sides, "a" and "b."
3. Square the lengths of both sides "a" and "b." This means multiplying each length by itself (a^2 and b^2).
4. Add the two squared lengths together (a^2 + b^2).
5. Take the square root of the sum (√(a^2 + b^2)).
6. The result of step 5 will be the length of the hypotenuse, "c."
To summarize, the Pythagorean theorem can be written as:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
Remember that this theorem only works for right-angled triangles.
