If the sides of the right-angled triangle are labelled 𝑎, 𝑏 and 𝑐 then Pythagoras' theorem can be written as the formula 𝑎² + 𝑏² = 𝑐². Pythagoras' theorem can be used to find the length of line ...

Two standout students, Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson from St. Mary’s Academy, proved that there is a new way to solve Pythagorean Theorem other than the familiar 2,000 years old formula. The post ...

Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson from Louisiana blew the math community away when they presented a solution to the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry, an impossible feat for 2,000 years. They ...

The Pythagorean Theorem—discovered by the Greek mathematician Pythagoras in the 6th century BCE—is a cornerstone of mathematics. Simply stated as a 2 + b 2 = c 2, the theorem posits that the sum of ...

In a new peer-reviewed study, Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson outlined 10 ways to solve the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry, including a proof they discovered in high school. When you ...

Two New Orleans students who solved the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry have had their discovery confirmed by the math community after their findings were published in the American Mathematical ...

*The Pythagorean theorem has baffled academics for 2,000 years but two high school students from New Orleans have reportedly solved the impossible. The students from St. Mary’s Academy presented their ...
