Khan Academy: Pythagorean Theorem Proof Using Similarity

In this video, Sal introduces the Pythagorean Theorem to viewers, crossing into the realm of geometry. He uses several examples, including right triangles, to illustrate the applications and uses of the Pythagorean Theorem.

This lecture, the second in a series on the Pythagorean Theorem, delves into more complex problems. Primarily, it examines the process of finding the value of a hypotenuse. It is beneficial because the example problem is one in which the...

No geometry class is complete without a proof. A short video in the Socratica Geometry playlist covers an algebraic proof of the Pythagorean Theorem. Simplifying an equation with two equivalent expressions for the area of a square leads...

Your class knows the Pythagorean Theorem, but can they prove it? A series of three videos shows two proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem and use it to classify triangles. 

Need to find the length of a side of a right triangle? Just use the Pythagorean Theorem! Follow along as the tutor defines the Theorem, explains how it works, then uses it to determine the missing length of a right triangle. 

Solve real-world problems that can be modeled by right triangles, using the Pythagorean Theorem!

In this exercise, students practice using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the side lengths of triangles within a 3-D solid. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to watch a video, get hints, or try questions...

More Pythagorean Theorem examples. Introduction to 45-45-90 triangles.

The video tutorial lesson [9:36] explains how to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse or the length of one of the legs. Introduces the relationship between the length of the legs and the length of the...
