Quadratic Formula

You can use the quadratic formula to solve ANY quadratic equation. It is used most when the quadratic equation is non-factorable.

 

Pythagorean Theorem

In a right-angled triangle, “The sum of squares of the lengths of the two sides is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse (or the longest side). You should remember that  Pythagoras theorem is only applicable to a Right-Angled triangle.

In the given triangle, side “a” is called as “Perpendicular”, side “b” is called as “Base” and side “c” is called as “Hypotenuse.”

The side opposite to the right angle (90) is the longest side known as Hypotenuse, as we know that the side opposite to the greatest angle is longest.
