...the geometrical truths set down in our Euclids. It suffices to learn that in a right-angled triangle the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides : it is demonstrable, and that is enough. Concerning the multitudes... | |

...she spent several days repeating over to herself, with a mystified countenance, the famous words, " The square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs." What were legs of a triangle, and how, if there were any, could they be square... | |

...В constructed on В С contains 25 squares. Now, 0 + 16 = 25 AB +AC = В С 159. Then we may say : The square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This statement is true for all right-angled triangles ; it does not,... | |

...right angles to each other, the resultant is the hypothenuse of a right triangle; and therefore, since the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, the square of the resultant is equal to the sum of the squares of the... | |

...? Why 1 2 , of course. " About this time Euclid made the discovery that in a right-angled triangle the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of the triangle. That is, if one square of 36 pebbles is placed in such... | |

...are given, the third may be found by means of the rule that the square of the hypolhenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the remaining sides. 3....Another method for solving right-angled triangles is as follows1 — To find a side. Call any one of the sides radius, and write upon it the word -radius.--... | |

...give the length of the front plate. From the well-known property of the right-angle triangle : — ' ' The square of the hypothenuse is equal to the . sum of the the squares of the two sides," the slant height, or length of front, can be calculated thus : — FRONT... | |

...Visser, 1908. Pp. 239. Price 4 fl. This famous theorem (Euclid I, 47), which states the fundamental law that the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, is here restored in its original form and is regarded as the foundation... | |

...CHAPTER IV MENSURATION' Lengths Bight-angled Triangle.—It has been shown that in a rightangled triangle the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Whence we have, where AC = hypothenuse A BC = base AB = perpendicular... | |
