The Pythagoras theorem , In the right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of other two sides. What are we proving here?
  1. a2÷b2=c2
  2. a2b2=c2
  3. a2+b2=c2
  4. a2xb2=c2

A
a2÷b2=c2
B
a2b2=c2
C
a2+b2=c2
D
a2xb2=c2
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Let a,b and c be the sides of triangle with c as hypotenuse.

Then according to Pythagoras theorem,

a2+b2=c2
