Ethan's Pythagorean Relationship scribe

1. The sum of the areas of the 2 legs added together equal the sum of the area of the hypotenuse.

2.

a2+b2=c2

122+52=c2

(12x12) (5x5)

144+25=169cm2

square root of 169 =13cm

3.

a2+b2=c2

82+62=112

(8x8)+(6x6)=(11x11)

64+36=121

c squared = 121 squared = 11cm

It is not a perfect square because the sum of the area of the 2 legs don't equal the sum of the are of the hypotenuse
