PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

MATH

before we begin let's get in some relevant Hebrew vocabulary so that we are advancing our Hebraic education in every circumstance

Right angle triangle
M5uLa5 Ya5aR-ZaWiT משולש ישר-זווית

Pythagorean theorem
Mi5Pa9 PiTRaGoX משפט פיתרגוס 

Hypotenuse
YeTeR יתר



The three angles inside a triangle always add up to 180°, no matter how the triangle is drawn.

PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM 

-A right angle triangle contains one angle that equals 90°.

the sides of a right triangle are always in a particular proportion which can be expressed by the formula A^2 + B^2 = C^2, in which A and B are the two shorter sides of the triangle, and C is the longer side opposite the 90-degree angle. This longer side is called the hypotenuse.

3-4-5 triangle

TESTING THE THEOREM

3^2 + 4^2 should equal 5^2. Does it? Yes! 9 + 16 does equal 25.
