6
What is one way of expressing Pythagoras theorem?
a2 - b2 = c2
c2 = a3 + b3
c2 + b2 + a2

When would we use Pythagorus Theorem?
When we know two sides of a triangle and want to find out the third
When we know one side of a triangle and we want to find out the other two
When we know one side, and one internal angle of a triangle
When we know all the angles but none of the sides of the triangle
