The Pythagoran Theorem
So, I went to a British tutoring site and found out about the Pythagoran Theorem problems.
Here is the Pythagoran Theorem itself:
And following that rule, you would do a problem like this:
1. Take 2 numbers, 1 being larger than the other. For example, 12 and 13.
2. Square them.
3. Subtract one from the other. 169-144=25
4. Find the square root of it. [math25=5[/math]
Therefore, the final formula would be:

Re: The Pythagoran Theorem
Hi;
Your latex is breaking up.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

hi,
He just used the wrong thing for square root in Latex. I've fixed it.
