For centuries, the Pythagorean Theorem has occupied a unique position in mathematics: both elementary and profound. Its ...

a 2 + b 2 = c 2. Remember that from high school math class? That's the Pythagorean theorem, which shows that in a right triangle, where the shorter legs are a and b, the sum of their squares is equal ...

Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson believe they can prove the Pythagorean Theorem using trigonometry — and are being encouraged to submit their work for peer review Jason Hahn is a former Human ...

New Orleans High School seniors Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson were honored at the 2023 Essence Festival through AT&T’s Dream in Black program. The Math geniuses proved the 2,000-year-old theory ...

You might think that once a theorem has been proved that would be the end of it. I mean, is there possibly any value in having another proof of something? A new proof certainly doesn't make a theorem ...

The Pythagorean Theorem is an ancient theory that states that in a right triangle, if the length of the hypotenuse is c, and the lengths of the two sides that sandwich the right angle are a and b, ...

The Pythagorean theorem is crucial in various fields, including construction, manufacturing and navigation, enabling precise measurements and the creation of right angles for large structures. It ...

Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson from Louisiana blew the math community away when they presented a solution to the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry, an impossible feat for 2,000 years. They ...
