Pythagorean Theorem 

The Pythagorean Theorem states that if Pedestrian A attempts to cross in front of car B at anything less than a 90 degree perpendicular angle, we can conclude that Pedestrian A is getting cut off.
"John (the model citizen) used the Pythagorean Theorem to determine it was faster to cross the road in a straight line, rather than diagonally."

Pythagorean Theorem 

1. In geometry, a theorem stating that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (legs). If the hypotenuse is c units long and the lengths of the legs are a and b, then c2 = a2 + b2. The theorem provides a way of calculating the length of any side of a right triangle if the lengths of the other to sides are known.

2. Something the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz was unable to correctly state even after he received his brains from the wizard.
-The Pythagorean Theorem? Who needs it? Some smart little preppy kid who's gonna save the world someday?
-Actually you need it to pass this geometry test asshole! If you don't pass this you stay back another year!

The Pythagorean Theorem 

The Pythagorean Theorem is a theorem that calculates the hypotenuse of a triangle; the formula being a^2+b^2=c^2, c being the hypotenuse and a & b being the legs of the triangle.

This theorem contains exponential expression & square roots. An example or this theorem is 9^2+12^2=c^2. First we need to calculate 9^2 and 12^2, which is 81 and 144. Next, we add them, you should get 225. Lastly, √225=15, so c=15.
Person 1: 6^2+8^2=14^2

Person 2: Wrong, 6^2 and 8^2 is 36 and 64, 36+64=100, √100=10

Person 1: Now that makes sense! How'd you get that

Person 2: The Pythagorean Theorem

A savage sexual position where the male contorts his body into the shape of a triangle while placing his foot onto the females head. Once in the "Pythagorean Theorem" position, he proceeds to viciously insert his erect phallus into her anus.
"Last night after the club I practiced my knowledge of the pythagorean theorem on a bitch. A2+b2=C2 baby."

Pythagorean Theorem 

THE MOST AWESOME THEOREM EVER CREATED!
Pythagorean Theorem: a squared plus b squared = c squared

Pythagorean Theorem 

A little juicy formula that exposes the covert relationship between the sides in a right triangle—no other elementary mathematical result has excited so many people from all walks of life to try proving it from different angles.
Just as without Christ, there’s no Christianity, without the Pythagorean theorem, there’s no Trigonometry.
