What does pythagorean theorem do or find?

The pythagorean theorum is used for finding the hypotinuse of a right triangle.

hypotinuse: the longest side of a right triangle

The Pythagorean Theorem is a theorem where you calculate and solve to find the hypotenuse of the triangle. There are three legs in the triangle and the longest leg is called the hypotenuse. The formula to calculate the hypotenuse is:

Using Pythagoras' Theorem

hyp² = side ² + side²

If we want to find only a side and not the hypotenuse we use this formula which is the opposite of solving for the hypotenuse:

side² = hyp² - side²

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.

step-by-step explanation: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
