This week in Geometry class, we learned about the Pythagorean Theorem.  The Pythagorean Theorem is the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.  The formula of the Pythagorean Theorem is a²+b²=c².  A Hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle, opposite the right angle ∠90°.  For Example, a²=4, b²=7, c²=x ⇒ 4²+7²=c² ⇒ 16+49=c² ⇒ c²=√65.  In conclusion, Pythagorean Theorem is a very interesting and I look forward to learning more equation as it relates the Pythagorean Theorem.
