Pythagoras' theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. It can be used to find the length of the hypotenuse or other sides of a right triangle, with applications in measuring lengths, steepness, and more. The document provides an overview of Pythagoras' theorem, why it is used, and how to solve it, citing internet sources and math textbooks as references.

What is Pythagoras Theorem ? It is basically a theorem invented by Thales of Miletus and his student Anaximander. It is used upon a 90 degree triangle to find its hypotenuse. Why we use Pythagoras Theorem ? As I said it is used to find out the hypotenuse of a 90 degree triangle. For Example : To calculate the length of staircase required to reach a window, To find the length of the longest item can be kept in your room, To find the steepness of the hills or mountains, etc. How Pythagoras Theorem is solved ?

Believe or not Pythagoras Theorem has a
very important role in our daily lives. As I have showed you in the previous slide. And the information I got is from internet (GOOGLE) and our Maths Book (D2). THANK YOU.
