A high school teacher didn't expect a solution when she set a 2,000-year-old Pythagorean Theorem problem in front of her students. Then Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson stepped up to the challenge.

A medical researcher has found the 2,500 year-old Pythagoras theorem could be the most effective way to identify the point at which a patient’s health begins to improve.

Some of the earliest evidence comes in the form of a clay tablet – which goes by the catchy name of IM 67118 – that uses the Pythagorean theorem to solve the length of a diagonal inside a ...

Stonehenge isn’t the only henge to embrace the Pythagorean theorem. Woodhenge, which is about two miles northeast of its more famous counterpart, was constructed with a perfect 2:35:37 triangle.

The Pythagorean theorem gives a fundamental relationship between the lengths of the three sides of a right-angled triangle. We make the case for which theorems of elementary Euclidean geometry should ...

Pythagoras? Theorem, explaining the relationship between the three sides of a right angled triangle, is one of the most famous in maths. It?s been studied and put to use for thousands of years ...

That's the Pythagorean theorem, which shows that in a right triangle, where the shorter legs are a and b, the sum of their squares is equal to the square of the longest leg, the hypotenuse, c.

Experts, who are studying the formation of Britain's Stonehenge, claimed that those who built it had knowledge of Pythagoras' theorem even 2,000 years before he was born.
