Laws

From which law follows directly the validity of Pythagoras' theorem in the right triangle?


« Correct result



Wrong answer


Solution:

c**2 = a**2 + b**2 - 2ab cos gamma $ $ $ $ gamma = 90** circ Rightarrow cos 90** circ =0 $ $ c**2 = a**2 + b**2 - 2ab cos 90** circ $ $ c**2 = a**2 + b**2 $ $
