The Pythagorean Theorem is...
a²+b²=c², where a and b are whole numbers and c is a square root
a²+b²=c², where a and b represent the legs of the triangle and c represents the hypotenuse
a²+b²=c², where a, b, and c represent the area of the squares of each side of the triangle
1 answer
The second option is correct: the Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. It is represented by the formula a² + b² = c², where a and b are the lengths of the legs of the triangle and c is the length of the hypotenuse.
