In this module, you can study the formula and concept of the Pythagorean Theorem; how to use the Pythagorean Theorem to figure out the length of any side of a right triangle.
The Pythagorean Theorem only works with right triangles, but you can use it in many different ways.
For example, builders use the Pythagorean Theorem when laying a house foundation to ensure it's square.
The Pythagorean Theorem is: a2 + b2 = c2
It means (side)2 + (side)2 = (hypotenuse)2
Hypotenuse is the the longest side
The letters a, b and c are not important; instead you could use the letters x, y and z!
