Pythagoriean Theorem

The statement of the Theorem was discovered on a Babylonian tablet circa 1900-1600 B.C. Whether Pythagoras (c.560-c.480 B.C.) was the first to discover its proof can't be claimed with any degree of credibility. Euclid's (c 300 B.C.) Elements furnish the first and, later, the standard reference in Geometry. In algebraic terms, a2 + b2 = c2 where c is the hypotenuse while a and b are the legs of the right angled triangle.

It is Pythagoras - He was a greek philosopher 582c - 500 bc, he was a mathematician and an anstronomer too. His famous pythogoras Theorem says the Sum of the squares of two sides of a right angled trianle id equla to the square of its hypotenues. If we see carefully it says the area of the sqaure with its side as hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares formed by using the remaining two sides of the the right angled triangle as the side of each square. This theorem has so many applications in practical life, perhaps no other theorem seems to have similar to it ! Do you know this is the only one theorem which has been proved in 23 different ways and about this fact there is a mention in the Guinness World Records. This theorem was one of my favorite theorem when I was in school as it was not only interesting, but problems based on this theorem used to be imaginative and one really had to had a brain to solve them !

he was a great mathematician and his theorme is a square plus b square = c square where a = base and b is height and c is hypotenuse of the triangle

a2+b2= c2?
