Pythagoras Theorem Reminder of square numbers: 1 2 = 1 x 1 = = 2 x 2 = = 3 x 3 = = 4 x 4 = Base number Index number The index number tells us how many times the base number is multiplied by itself. e.g. 3 4 means 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 81 1,4,9,16, …. are the answers to a number being squared so they are called square numbers.

Pythagoras Theorem Square root means think what is multiplied by itself to make this number? Answer these questions: Use your calculator to answer these questions:

Pythagoras Theorem c2c2 b2b2 a2a2 a 2 + b 2 = c 2 b a c In a right-angled triangle, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. Hypotenuse Pythagoras of Samos (6 C BC)

b a Cut the squares away from the right angle triangle and cut up the segments of square ‘a’ Draw line segment xy, parallel with the hypotenuse of the triangle x y q p Draw line segment pq, at right angles to Line segment xy. Pythagoras Theorem To show how this works:

Now rearrange them to look like this. You can see that they make a square with length of side ‘c’. This demonstrates that the areas of squares a and b add up to be the area of square c a 2 + b 2 = c 2
