Question

Name a career in which one would have to use the phythagorean theorem.Give an example of when and how it would be used.Please write in complete sentences

Answer 1

Answer:

The careers that use Pythagoras theorem are mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of squares of the two sides of right angled triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

Let a, b and c be the sides of a right triangle where c is the length of the hypotenuse.Then

$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$

Pythagoras theorem is used in daily life situations.

A surveyor looks through a telescope toward a measuring stick a fixed distance away, so that the telescope's line of sight and the measuring stick form a right angle.

It is also used to calculate the steepness of slopes and mountains.
