What are applications of Pythagorean theorem in daily life.

Answer 1

Applications of the Pythagorean theorem in daily life.

Pythagoras Theorem: In a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides

${\left(\mathrm{Base}\right)}^2+{\left(\mathrm{Height}\right)}^2={\left(\mathrm{Hypotenuse}\right)}^2$

Some of the daily life application of the Pythagorean theorem is as follows:

• Used to find the sides of the right-angle triangle and corresponding trigonometric ratios
• Used to survey the mountain, its height and distance needed to cover to reach the peaks
• Used by architects and engineers in construction
