Create Free AccountThe Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, a² + b² = c², where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse (the longest side, opposite the right angle). This relationship only works for right triangles.
To find the hypotenuse: c = √(a² + b²). To find a leg: a = √(c² - b²). Square the known sides, add or subtract as needed, then take the square root of the result.
