Chapter 5 Angles and Trigonometry
5.5 Pythagoras' Theorem 2
A hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle. Pythagoras theorem states that, in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides. In this section, we learn about Pythagoras theorem, Pythagoras, shorter side.
