Question

which formula represents the pythagorean theorem?
a. ( a^{2}+b^{2}=c )
b. ( a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2} )
c. ( a^{2}-b^{2}=c^{2} )
d. ( a + b = c^{2} )

Explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right - angled triangle, the sum of the squares of the two legs ($a$ and $b$) is equal to the square of the hypotenuse ($c$).

Answer:

B. $a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$
