How to figure out pythagoras theorem?

Any triangle with one angle equal to 90⁰ produces a Pythagoras triangle and the Pythagoras equation can be applied in the triangle.

<h3>What is the Pythagoras Theorem?</h3>

The Pythagoras theorem states that if a triangle is right-angled (90 degrees), then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In △ABD and △ACB,

∠A = ∠A (common)

∠ADB = ∠ABC (both are right angles)

Thus, △ABD ∼ △ACB (by AA similarity criterion)

Similarly, we can prove △BCD ∼ △ACB.

Thus △ABD ∼ △ACB,

Therefore, AD/AB = AB/AC.

We can say that AD × AC = AB².

Similarly, △BCD ∼ △ACB.

Therefore,

CD/BC = BC/AC.

We can also say that

CD × AC = BC².

Adding these 2 equations, we get

AB² + BC² = (AD × AC) + (CD × AC)

AB² + BC² =AC(AD +DC)

AB² + BC² = AC²

Hence proved

Thus, any triangle with one angle equal to 90⁰ produces a Pythagoras triangle and the Pythagoras equation can be applied in the triangle.
