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
Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares even exponent in the prime factorization of the number. Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares In additive number theory, Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares states that an odd prime "p" can be expressed as: formula_1 with "x" and "y" integers, if and only if The prime numbers for which this is true are called Pythagorean primes. For example, the primes 5, 13, 17, 29, 37 and 41 are all congruent to 1 modulo 4, and they can be expressed as sums of two squares in the following ways: On the other hand, the primes 3, 7, 11,
