Pythagoras

yes he did

He had two or three brothers and no sisters

To find the answer of a triangle

You do A squared+ B squared= C squared

With A=5 B=2 C=7, you don't have a right-angled triangle (90° angle), that's why you get a wrong answer. The Pythagorean theorem isn't wrong, YOU are wrong!

Although it is often argued that knowledge of the theorem predates him, the theorem is named after the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras (c. 570 - c. 495 BC) as it is he who, by tradition, is credited with its first recorded proof.

of course not women were looked at as they were only pieces of scum on th ground

Pythagoras went to Babylon and studied with the Chaldean stargazers. He went to Egypt and studied the lore of the priests at Memphis and Diospolis.

In Egypt he studied with the people known as the "rope-stretchers". These were the engineers who built the pyramids.

They held a very special secret in the form of a rope tied in a circle with 12 evenly spaced knots. It turns out that if the rope was pegged to the ground in the dimensions of 3-4-5, a right triangle would emerge instantly.

This enabled them to lay the foundations for their buildings accurately.

He traveled to all the known parts of the Mediterranean world. During his travels he came to the conclusion that the earth must be round. In history, he is given credit as the first person to spread this idea.

Pythagoras spent many years learning by traveling. Some say he made it the whole way to India and was deeply influenced, for he took up Oriental dress, including a turban. Many of his mystical ideas like number magic and reincarnation were typical of the East.

Finally he returned home. He was probably the single most educated man on the face of the earth at that point. He wanted to share what he knew, but the people of his home town Samos were less than enthusiastic.

Tired of finding no one who would listen to his learning, he decided to "buy" a student. He found a homeless child and offered him a bribe. Pythagoras would pay him three obli for every lesson the boy mastered.

Now the boy thought this was great. He could sit all day in the shade of a large tree and listen to this old man and could make better wages than in a whole day's work in the hot sun. Naturally, he concentrated hard while Pythagoras introduced him to mathematical disciplines.

From the simple calculations of the Egyptian rope-stretchers, to the methods of the Phoenician navigators, to abstract rules and reasoning, Pythagoras led his pupil on. Soon the subject became so interesting that the boy begged for more and more lessons.

At this point, Pythagoras explained that he could not afford to pay someone to just listen to him anymore. So they reached a bargain. The boy had saved enough to pay Pythagoras for his lessons. This was probably the start of organized education.

Eventually Pythagoras left the island of Samos and settled on the Isle of Croton. This is where he formed his Secret Brotherhood.

The Secret Brotherhood was a religious order with initiation rites and purifications and Pythagoras was its supreme unquestioned leader. He taught them that KNOWLEDGE WAS THE GREATEST PURIFICATION, and for them knowledge meant mathematics.

The most famous discovery that Pythagoras made came from his fascination with the Egyptian 3-4-5 rope-stretchers triangle.

He had spent years thinking about it and what magic it might hold. Lo and behold,..........it DID hold a great deal of mathematics and for Pythagoras that was the same thing as magical power.

One day while drawing in the sand he found that if a square is drawn from each side of the 3-4-5 triangle, the area of the two small squares added together equals the area of the large square.

3^2+4^2=5^2

9 + 16 = 25

He examined other right triangles and found it was true with them also:

6^2 + 8^2 = 10^2

36 + 64 = 100

9^2 + 12^2 = 15^2

81 + 144 = 225

So he decided to announce it as a revelation from the god Apollo, who many claimed to be his father.

When he revealed this finding to his followers, he used the general terms of a & b for the shorter legs and c for the longer side which he gave the name "hypotenuse". Thus we have the famous PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM!

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

To measure triangles. To find the length of a triangles side, when two sides are already given.

If by "triangle property" you mean the Pythagorean theorem, then your question is so deep, perhaps even deeper than the question why a2 + b2 = c2. The scientists of human behaviour have not yet found what exactly triggers the mind to form or to express a new idea. Exogenous (meaning from the surrounding environment) as well as endogenous (meaning from inside ourselves) factors combine so at specific moment a brilliant idea is formed in the mind of someone. The society and the education where someone lives is one of the major factors. The quality of the brain that each one has, is another major factor. Coincidence should also be regarded.

the square on the hypoteneuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.

Pythagoras lived in Greece and the island he lived on was samos

Pythagoras died around the age of 75 around 495 BC.

a2+b2=c2

what qualificationa do pythagoras have.

Yes, he must have proved his own Theorem otherwise it would not have been adopted by mathematicians across the globe.

I'm sure you could test out the theorem: check whether c2 really does equal b2 + a2 in a manual measurement of a triangle; though this is less accurate and not as precise as the Theorem.

Pythagoras influenced many people like, Philolaus, Alcmaeon, Parmenides, Plato, Euclid, Empedocles, Hippasus, and Kepler.

It made finding the missing side of a right triangle easier

In the sixth century B.C, (for example) Pythagoras, familiar to geometry students for his Pythagorean theorem, taught that the essence of the universe could be found in music and in numbers.

yes pythagora has

You need a side and another angle. Hypo = side / sin angle. Eg if a side is 6 units and an angle 30 degrees then hypotenuse = 6/0.5 = 12

Yes, her name was Theano.
