Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson believe they can prove the Pythagorean Theorem using trigonometry — and are being encouraged to submit their work for peer review Jason Hahn is a former Human ...
Two New Orleans teens joined an exclusive club of mathematicians when they discovered trigonometry proofs for Pythagorean's Theorem. Two teens in New Orleans joined an exclusive club of mathematicians ...
Some mathematicians have stated that proving the theorem using trigonometry is impossible without circular reasoning, because trigonometry relies so much on the theorem itself. Two New Orleans high ...
For over two millennia, mathematicians agreed on one thing: you can’t use trigonometry to prove Pythagoras’ Theorem—because trigonometry is built on it. That logic, drilled into students and scholars ...
For centuries, students have learned that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Known as the Pythagorean Theorem, this ...
Two years ago, a couple of high school classmates each composed a mathematical marvel, a trigonometric proof of the Pythagorean theorem. Now, they’re unveiling 10 more. For over 2,000 years, such ...
