In terms of areas, it states: • In any right triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs (the two sides that meet at a right angle). • The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides a, b and c : • • where c represents the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b represent the lengths of the other two sides. • These two formulations show two fundamental aspects of this theorem: it is both a statement about areas and about lengths. Tobias Dantzig refers to these as areal and metric interpretations. Some proofs of the theorem are based on one interpretation, some upon the other. • The Pythagorean theorem is named after the Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who by tradition is credited with its discovery and proof although it is often argued that knowledge of the theorem predates him. (There is much evidence that Babylonian mathematicians understood the formula, although there is little surviving evidence that they fitted it into a mathematical framework. • Please like our facebook page • / tutorvista
