Pythagoras' theorem can also be used to solve 3D problems. You often need to use Pythagoras' theorem more than once in each problem as we create extra right-angled triangles in the 3D shapes. First ...
If the sides of the right-angled triangle are labelled 𝑎, 𝑏 and 𝑐 then Pythagoras' theorem can be written as the formula 𝑎² + 𝑏² = 𝑐². Pythagoras' theorem can be used to find the length of line ...
