Do you recall your high school geometry? Given isosceles triangle ABC, where side AB is equal to side BC, then angle A is also equal to angle C. That’s not something your math teacher invented—it’s a ...

An understanding of how to use Pythagoras’ theorem to find missing sides in a right-angled triangle is essential for applying the theorem in different contexts. (3,1) is the coordinate that is 3 along ...
