BEYOND PYTHAGORAS First Number is odd Pythagoras Theorem is a2 + b2 = c2. 'a' being the shortest side, 'b' being the middle side and 'c' being the longest side (hypotenuse) of a right angled triangle. 1) The Pythagoras Theorem a2 + b2 = c2, is basically (Smallest Number) 2 + (Middle Number) 2=(Largest Number) 2 a) The numbers 5, 12 & 13 satisfy the condition. 52 + 122 = 132 Because 52 = 5 X 5= 25 122 = 12 X 12= 144 132 = 13 X 13= 169 and so 52 + 122 = 25 + 144= 169= 132 b) The numbers 7, 24 & 25 satisfy the condition. 72 + 242 = 252 Because 72 = 7 X 7= 49 242 = 24 X 24= 576 252 = 25 X 25= 625 and so 72 + 242 = 49 + 576= 625= 252 2) The numbers 3, 4 and 5 can be lengths...
