From trigonometry to Pythagoras' theorem, there are plenty of mathematical terms you might remember from school – but could you actually answer a question now? After a survey found half of British ...

The standard Pythagorean theorem is used on an everyday basis in professions like architecture, building construction, navigation, spaceflight, computer sciences, and more. Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya ...

The longest side of a right-angled triangle is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is always opposite the right angle. Draw a square on each side of a right-angled triangle. Calculate the area of each ...

The Pythagorean theorem, a cornerstone of mathematics for millennia, provides a method for determining unknown sides in right-angled triangles using the formula a² + b² = c². Its applications extend ...

The shape ABCDEFGH is a cuboid. Length AB is 6 cm, length BG is 3 cm and length FG is 2 cm. Calculate the length AF. Draw the right-angled triangle ACF and label the ...

Two high school students have proved the Pythagorean theorem in a way that one early 20th-century mathematician thought was impossible: using trigonometry. Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson, both at ...

The Pythagorean Theorem is an ancient theory that states that in a right triangle, if the length of the hypotenuse is c, and the lengths of the two sides that sandwich the right angle are a and b, ...

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – Two students at a school in New Orleans have presented evidence of a mathematical discovery that scholars have been trying to prove for 2,000 years. School officials at St. Mary’s ...
