Now Pythagoras was a teacher and philosopher in the 6th century BC. Pythagorean Theorem Proof by AmericanXplorer13 at English Wikipedia, There are many proofs of this theorem and some of them like the one below is a visual proof. Apparently, it did not become as well known until Pythagoras stated it. It is referenced in Ancient Egypt and Babylon (around 1900 BC). Yes, it is this famous!Īlthough it is named for the Greek mathematician, Pythagoras, it was known throughout the world before his time.
The Pythagorean theorem also is mentioned (incorrectly) in the Wizard of Oz. In high school the brain is just beginning to truly develop its logic skills and math is huge in helping with this. Although math has real life applications and was mostly discovered to explain the world, much of math is taught to help develop the brain of our children. I have seen memes saying how people did not use the Pythagorean theorem today, but I have also been told by many people that they have used it in their lives from building a new deck and woodwork to programming and more. In algebra it lends to working with exponents and roots and in geometry with triangles. It is often taught in both algebra and geometry. The Pythagorean Theorem is probably one of the most well-known or well-remembered theorem in math. As I continue to think about my new job in September and plan for what I want to hang in my classroom, I am exploring the Pythagorean Theorem.
