The Pythagorean Theorem (A² + B² = C² ) is used to help you find the hypotenuse (long side of a right triangle.)
For example imagine that the 2 legs of a right triangle are 10 and 12 and you are trying to find out the long side (hypotenuse.) what you have to do is plug in the numbers in the formula.
Step1:10²+12²=c²
do 10 times 10 because it is squared and do the same with 12 and should look like this:
Step 2: 10²= 100 , and 12²=144
Then what you do is add 100+144
Step 3: 100+144=244
Last step is to find the square root 144 to find what c² is
Step4: 144 square root= 15.6 and if your rounding it its 16 and you know it right if the hypotenuse is more then the 2 legs
And that's the Pythagorean Theorem
