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
Altitude (triangle) formula_30 we have If is any point on an altitude of any triangle , then For any point within an equilateral triangle, the sum of the perpendiculars to the three sides is equal to the altitude of the triangle. This is Viviani's theorem. In a right triangle the three altitudes , and (the first two of which equal the leg lengths and respectively) are related according to Altitude (triangle) In geometry, an altitude of a triangle is a line segment through a vertex and perpendicular to (i.e., forming a right angle with) a line containing the base (the side opposite
