This theorem may have more known proofs than any other (the law of quadratic reciprocity being another contender for that distinction); the book The Pythagorean Proposition contains 370 proofs. In the third degree, we are also taught that the 47th Problem of Euclid, also known as the Pythagorean Theorem, teaches us to be great lovers of the arts and sciences. Magalhaes, NMCCA 200602480 (N-M Ct. Of the hundreds upon hundreds of the known proofs of the Pythagorean theorem, Euclid's proof has to be the most famous one. Today, young children sometimes first hear of the famous Pythagorean theorem from the mouth of the Scarecrow, when he finally gets a brain in MGM's 1939 film version of The Wizard of Oz. Anyone who can recall math classes will remember the first lessons of plane geometry that usually start with the Pythagorean theorem about right-angled triangles: a²+b²=c². But according to Elisha Scott Loomis, author of The Pythagorean Proposition, “The number of algebraic proofs is limitless as is also the number of geometric proofs, but that the proposition admits no trigonometric proof. For example, a student may experience reading a geometry textbook, and as a result of that experience, he may be able to state the Pythagorean Theorem. February 21, 2008), the court cites to Wikipedia for the definition of the Pythagorean Theorem; in United States v. It is Proposition 47 of Book 1 of his immortal work, Elements. Actual knowledge based on the pythagorean theorem has to come from knowledge that one is dealing with something which satisfies the definition of a right triangle.
