August 15, 2017 (8/15/17) was Pythagorean Theorem Day (see I missed Pythagorean Theorem Day). I was not even aware that there was such a day until this year, but it brought to my attention some really ...

For centuries, the Pythagorean Theorem has occupied a unique position in mathematics: both elementary and profound. Its ...

You might think that once a theorem has been proved that would be the end of it. I mean, is there possibly any value in having another proof of something? A new proof certainly doesn't make a theorem ...

New Orleans High School seniors Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson were honored at the 2023 Essence Festival through AT&T’s Dream in Black program. The Math geniuses proved the 2,000-year-old theory ...

The Pythagorean Theorem—discovered by the Greek mathematician Pythagoras in the 6th century BCE—is a cornerstone of mathematics. Simply stated as a 2 + b 2 = c 2, the theorem posits that the sum of ...

The Pythagorean theorem, a cornerstone of mathematics for millennia, provides a method for determining unknown sides in right-angled triangles using the formula a² + b² = c². Its applications extend ...

In 2022, two high school students created a trigonometric proof of the Pythagorean Theorem—something that’s only ever been accomplished by a few professional mathematicians. Now, a new article not ...

Two New Orleans students who solved the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry have had their discovery confirmed by the math community after their findings were published in the American Mathematical ...

Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson believe they can prove the Pythagorean Theorem using trigonometry — and are being encouraged to submit their work for peer review Jason Hahn is a former Human ...
