Pythagorean theorem

in right angled triangles there is a relationship that governs the length of the tree sides. if we knows the length of any two sides, the third side maybe calculated by the use of the Pythagorean theorem.

this theorem states that the square on the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the remaining two sides.

the pythagorean theorem is A squared plus B squared equals C squared. and it is used to find a missing length in a right triangle:)

hope this helps!
