Pythagoras theorem is a relation between the three sides of a right angle triangle. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (namely Base and Perpendicular).

the Pythagorean theorem, also known as Pythagoras's theorem, is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

When a triangle has a right angle (90°) and squares are made on each of the three sides, then the biggest square has the exact same area as the other two squares put together. a2 + b2 = c2 52 + 122 = c2 25 + 144 = c2 169 = c2 c2 = 169 c = 169 c = 13

The hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle. Thus the equation hypotenuse square = one side square + other side square is formed. This is valid only in case of a right angled triangle.
