Project Mathematics! video modules were created between 1988 and 2000. Another two modules, "Teachers Workshop" and "Project MATHEMATICS! Contest", were created in 1991 for teachers and are only available on videotape. The content of the nine educational modules follows below. In 1988, "The Theorem of Pythagoras" was the first video produced by the series and reviews the Pythagorean theorem. For all right triangles, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides ( a + b = c ). The theorem is named after Pythagoras of ancient Greece. Pythagorean triples occur when all
Pythagorean theorem opposite the right angle corner is the sum of the squares of the areas of the other three faces. This result can be generalized as in the ""n"-dimensional Pythagorean theorem": This statement is illustrated in three dimensions by the tetrahedron in the figure. The "hypotenuse" is the base of the tetrahedron at the back of the figure, and the "legs" are the three sides emanating from the vertex in the foreground. As the depth of the base from the vertex increases, the area of the "legs" increases, while that of the base is fixed. The theorem suggests that when this
