Pythagoras’s theorem^2+n^2 = proof^2
Did anything stand out? maybe the m^2+n^2 = f^2 bit? That is Pythagoras's theorem. That? This is what it's like: Pythagoras's theorem, in triangles and squares Link: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Pythagorean.svg/260px-Pythagorean.svg.png Pythagoras's theorem states that, if the triangle is a right-angled triangle, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Sure, this is one proof: prove it! Link: https://i.stack.imgur.com/POhH1.png But for … Continue reading Pythagoras’s theorem^2+n^2 = proof^2
