The document discusses the Pythagorean theorem and distance formula. The Pythagorean theorem states that for any right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs. The distance formula calculates the distance between two points on a graph by taking the difference of the x-coordinates squared plus the difference of the y-coordinates squared. The document provides an example of applying the distance formula to find the distance between two points, which equals 0.

Pythagorean theorem and distance formula
- 2. ? Que es Pythagorean Theorem ?The Pythagorean Therom consists of a fórmula de mathimaticas.The Formula is a2+ b2= c2. “a“ and “b” are the legs of the triangle which is ”c “is the hypotenuse.In the Pythagorean Theory you only use an right angle or a 900degree angle.
- 4. 42+52=c2
- 5. 16+25=c2
- 7. Distance Formula (X2-X1)2+(Y2 -Y1 )2Just like when you do slope you do almost the same thing here just matching the coordinates up differently.Distance Formula…and how it’s done!Here are two points from a graph set up so that all I have to do is match it: (3x,1 ,4y,1) and (2x,2 ,5y,2 ). Now lets do the work…(2-3)2+ (5-4)2-12 + 12-1+10 0 = 0
