Pythagoras’ Theorem Pythagoras’ Worksheet 1 Pythagoras’ Theorem “For any right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.” a2 + b2 = c2 So, to find the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle;

We know a2 + b2 = c2, so

52 + 82 = c2

25 + 64 =c2 89 = c2 9.4 (1dp) = c

Find the hypotenuse of these triangles yourself: 1.
