          b

Pythagoras is a theorem found in Geometric side of Mathematics.
It ca be applied for solving the problem of finding the length of a base or a perpendicular or hypotenuse of a Right Angled triangle, which is the side opposite to hypotenuse of a triangle to be 90 degrees, where any two from these three is known Basically, it is used to find the length of hypotenuse.

The theorem says,

  p^2 + b^2 = h^2


so, root of ( p^2 + b^2) = h 
similarly,

p = root(
h^2-b^2)


and 

b = root(h^2-p^2), 

Any two from Base, Perpendicular and Hypotenuse have to be known to make this theorem work.

Thanks and keep hardworking !!
