In this BrainPOP movie, Tim and Moby will show you how to use the theorem to find the measurements of a right triangle’s hypotenuse and legs. Discover just how old the Pythagorean Theorem is, who it's named after, and why it’s one of the building blocks of geometry. Don’t worry - the name may be long, but the equation is simple. If you know how to do exponents and square roots, you should have no problem! And if you think it’s all just theoretical, watch Tim use the Pythagorean Theorem to repair a table!
