Title This famous theorem is named for the Greek mathematician and philosopher, Pythagoras. Pythagoras founded the Pythagorean School of Mathematics in Cortona, a Greek seaport in Introduction Southern Italy. He is credited with many contributions to mathematics although some of Task them may have actually been the work of his students. Process The Pythagorean Theorem is Pythagoras' most famous mathematical contribution. According to legend, Pythagoras was so happy when he discovered the theorem that he Evaluation offered a sacrifice of oxen. Conclusion Pythagoras needs your help in showing disbelievers that his theorem works for all right triangles. He has the problem that some people do not believe him because they do not understand how he explains it. Your job as a group is to find ways to make everyone believers and show them that the theorem exists in real world examples. Be prepared to work hard on this project.
