Year 10 Pythagoras. August 2011. Pythagoras c 2 = a 2 + b 2 where c is the hypotenuse = the longest side. Pythagoras c 2 = a 2 + b 2 so c = (a 2 + b 2 )^0.5 a 2 = c 2 - b 2 so a = (c 2 - b 2 )^0.5 b 2 = c 2 - a 2 so b = (c 2 - a 2 )^0.5. Which Formulae ?.

Pythagoras c2 = a2 + b2 where c is the hypotenuse = the longest side
Pythagorasc2 = a2 + b2 so c = (a2 + b2 )^0.5 a2 = c2 - b2 so a = (c2 - b2 )^0.5 b2 = c2 - a2 so b = (c2 - a2 )^0.5
