Pythagorean theorem Pythagorean theorem In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem, also known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides "a", "b" and "c", often called the "Pythagorean equation": where "c" represents the length of the hypotenuse and "a" and "b" the lengths of the triangle's other two sides. Although it is
Magic triangle (mathematics) for any order need to be checked for the magic property. Order-3 magic triangles are the simplest (except for trivial magic triangles of order 1). Magic triangle (mathematics) A magic triangle (also called a perimeter magic triangle) is an arrangement of the integers from 1 to on the sides of a triangle with the same number of integers on each side, called the "order" of the triangle, so that the sum of integers on each side is a constant, the magic sum of the triangle. Unlike magic squares, there are different magic sums for magic triangles of the same order.
