How do you prove the hypotenuse leg theorem without using Pythagorean theorem?
I have to prove http://s5.tinypic.com/19ldma.jpg http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/9263/mathhlproofou4.jpg without using pythagorean theorem
Does pythagorean theorem prove a triangle to be a right triangle?
Yes
What type of triangle proves the pythagorean theorerm?
The Pythagorean Theorem applies only to right triangles. (But they don't prove it.)
How does the pythagorean theorem prove irrational numbers?
It does not.If you consider a right angled triangle with minor sides of length 1 unit each, then the Pythagorean theorem shows the third side (the hypotenuse) is sqrt(2) units in length. So the theorem proves that a side of such a length does exist. However, it does not prove that the answer is irrational. The same applies for some other irrational numbers.
True or false a theroem is a statement that can be easily proved?
Neither. A theorem is a proven mathematical statement. This says nothing about how easily it can be proven. e.g. the Pythagorean Theorem is easily proven, but Fermat's Last Theorem is extremely difficult to prove.
WHO WAS THE FIRST US PRESIDENT TO PROVE THE PYTHAGORAS THEOREM?
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.
Who was the only us president to prove pythhagoras' theorem?
James A. Garfield

Yes
Did James Garfield prove the Pythagorean theorem?
I don't think I could make the proof clear without a diagram, so you must check the related links to read it. I will say that it is algebraic in nature and is based on knowing how to find the area of a trapezoid. The first link is a student link and may not stay up for long. The second link contains several proofs of the Pythagorean theorem and you will have to hunt in it to find Garfield's proof, but it is there.

How do you prove the pythagorean theorem?
For any right angle triangle its hypotenuse when squared is equal to the sum of its squared sides.

Why are there so many ways to prove the pythagorean theorem?
Because in a right angle triangle the square of its hypotenuse is always equal to the sum of each side squared.
Can a corollary be used to prove a theorem?
Yes, the corollary to one theorem can be used to prove another theorem.
