The Pythagorean theorem gets its name from the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras. He was one of the first to offer proof of the theorem.
A visual proof of the Pythagorean theorem, claimed to have been devised by the great genius of the Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci.
James A. Garfield, the twentieth president of the United States, discovered an original proof of the Pythagorean theorem. The proof is algebraic in nature and uses the formula for the area of a trapezoid. See the link below for details. Garfield is credited with an original proof of this famous theorem. Many of the presidents undoubtedly proved it in geometry class after studying their books.

The Pythagorean theorem is named after the Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who by tradition is credited with its discovery and proof, although it is often argued that knowledge of the theorem predates him.
James Garfield is the only president credited with an original proof of the Pythagorean Theorem.An educated guess is that most of the college educated presidents knew a proof of this theorem at one time in their schooling.
A previous US president didnt invent the Pythagorean Theorem. A mathematician with the last name of "Pythagoras" did. After he died, his students continued with his studies and once they perfected it, they named the famous theorem after Pythagoras, their professor. However, President ames Garfield devised a new proof for the theorem and Garfield's proof still appears in geometry books . There was a mysterious society known as the Pythagoreans who studied some mathematics, but also attached mystical properties to numbers . It is not certain what Pythagoras the person actually did or even if he actually existed.
Oh yes, the Pythagorean Theorem has been proven.
The Pythagorean theorem uses the right triangle.
Although the Pythagorean theorem (sums of square of a right angled triangle) is called a theorem it has many mathematical proofs (including the recent proof of Fermats last theorem which tangentially also prooves Pythagorean theorem). In fact Pythagorean theorem is an 'axiom', a kind of 'super law'. It doesn't matter if anyone does oppose it, it is one of the few fundamental truths of the universe.
