Pithagoras

A misspelled or corrupt version of Pythagoras, the Greek vegan mathematician-turned-numerologist, who wouldn’t hesitate to expel, ostracize, or even murder his yes-students should they dare to criticize or challenge his mathematical gospel that everything could be expressed as a ratio of whole numbers.
Those against Greek culture or heritage would deliberately write “Pithagoras” whenever they needed to cite or quote the most famous theorem in mathematics.

pythagoras 

screw this sin, cos, tan crap... pythagoras what did you dooooo

Pythagoras 

c. 582-c. 507 B.C.E. A Greek cosmologist who believed that numbers described the true nature of the universe. A very influential teacher, about whom many legend were written and later attatched to Jesus in the New Testament.
It is uncertain why the Pythagorean theorem is so named; it was neither Pythagoras nor his followers who discovered or even proved the rule, nor were they even particularly concerned with it in any way.

A japanese Kids show made popular by it's fansubbing by the acclaimed dattebayo. This show opens and ends with crazy complex "Pythagoras Switches" which usually involve marbles, dominos and tubes. At the end or each of these rube Goldberg inventions the name of the show is revealed followed by children singing "Pitagora Suicchi". Because it's a kids show it tries to teach basic speech skills making it a fun way for the average English speaking japanophile to get a beginners grasp of Japanese. The show has also gained some popularity over you-tube which is filled with people performing the so called "algorithm march" which is usually done by tmen in suits in the middle of the show. They often have accompanyment in the form of soccer teams, and ninjas.

pythagoras theorem 

Using Pythagoras Theorem, the third side of a right-angled triangle can be calculated when two sides are given.

Suppose A = length of hypotenuse and
B & C = lengths of the sides containing the right angle

Then (A^2) = (B^2)+(C^2)

Proof:

If a = angle opposite side A ( =90 degrees)

b = angle opposite side B

c = angle opposite side C

then B = A sin a and C = A cos a

Squaring and adding,we get the result.
Pythagorean triplets:

3,4,5

5,12,13

8,15,17

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
