Answer:

Phythagorean Theorem - a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Explanation:

It represents the Pythagorean Theorem because in the model there is a right triangle and you can use the phythagoren theorem with any right triangle that has at least two known sides.

Since you know all the sides in this diagram, this would be true:


6^2 + 8^2 = 10^2
