Question

What Properties or characteristics or similar triangles could be used to prove the Pythagorean theorem?

Answer 1

Well, in order to prove the Pythagorean theorem, every triangle you are using has to have one right angle (90-degree angle), and the side opposite to it will be called the hypothenuse. The remaining two triangles will be acute angles (<90 degrees), and the sides opposite to them are called sides/catheti.
