  • Sure, The Pythagorean Theorem is technically it's a Geometry topic, but why not learn about it in Algebra? Some people prefer The Distance Formula, but honestly I prefer Pythag.

      Hey person 🙃, so here’s the deal,God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life- abundant and eternal.But we choose to disobey God and go our own willful and sinful way. This results in separation from God.But Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose from the grave. He paid the penalty for our sin and bridged the gap between God and people.You must trust Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and receive Him by personal invitation to receive that free gift and eternal life, think about this, have a blessed day 💙.

    Start with: a2 + b2 = c2
    Put in what we know: 12 + 12 = c2
    Calculate squares: 1 + 1 = c2
    1+1=2: 2 = c2
    Swap sides: c2 = 2
    Square root of both sides: c = √2
    Which is about: c = 1.4142...

    You are a great teacher! Your class is fun and informative. You did a very good job stating the Pythagorean Theorem, and then showing great examples of how it is used in terms of right triangles. The jargon was not overwhelming, and the terms used were explained well. However, I believe that this topic is a great way to introduce students to the history of math, math proofs, and the importance of math in their daily lives. This theorem is very important in other branches of math and real life, but students

    That's a good point! Often subjects like Geometry, Algebra and Trigonometry overlap. Especially advanced exam questions will require you to use many different subjects.
    Here is a tip for Algebra: If you have an equation with two unknowns, you will need to create another equation to solve both unknowns. Otherwise the unknowns will just be in relation to each other.

    Calculate squares: 25 + 144 = c2
    25+144=169: 169 = c2
    Swap sides: c2 = 169
    Square root of both sides: c = √169

    Thank you for this video. I was unable to grasp the Pythagorean Theorem while in class but after watching this video, I now understand it.

    The Diagonal of square can also be calculated using the EXACT circumference of INSCRIBED CIRCLE with the square. The formula is 14 Sides - 4 circumferences = diagonal, where circumference = Pi x Diameter (= Side ) and Pi = exact Pi = 3.14644660941.....(14-root2)/4. One can take Side= Diameter= 1 Trillion centimeters ( 1 Trillion = 1,000,000,000,000 ). We get the CORRECT diagonal length.

    Initially when reading the "yay math" on slideshow intro I laughed out loud because math isn't fun!!! BUT after watching this video and positively learning about this theorem i too now sing "yay math , yay math"!! haha
    thank you for bringing those kids joy and thank you for making math much more approachable for kids !
