Answer:

Explanation:

A perfect square is a number that can be squared and come out as a whole number... Ex) the square root of 81 is 9.

Pythagorean triples: 2 positive integers that equal the third when squared Ex) 3, 4, 5

Pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

Hypotenuse: the longest side in the triangle

Right angle: An angle that measures 90 degrees

Legs: The 2 other sides of the triangle besides the hypotenuse
