Geometry - Right Triangles
6 important questions on Geometry - Right Triangles
Explain the pythagorean theorem in your own words
Say we have 2 legs, leg A and Leg B, and we have a hypotenuse called C.
Essentially A^2 + B^2 must equal C^2
Does the pythagorean theorem work for all triangles?
Does the pythagorean theorem work both ways (if the triangle is a right angle, the theorem works <--> if the theorem works, we must have a right (tri)angle)?

See image for question, solve for c (note: the question looks the same as the previous one, but it is not.
Given the following lengths of 2 legs in a right triangle, what is the value of the hypotenuse: {5, 12, hypotenuse}
If you have to solve for c in a^2 + b^2 = C^2, does it matter whether you add a and b together and then square the outcome versus squaring a and b individually?
Whereas (3+4)^2 = 7^2 = 49.
