Pythagorean Theorem
It is used to calculate the steepness of the slope of the mountain hills. On the other hand, it somehow the relationship between the three sides of a right triangle in geometry. Wherein the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas on its other two sides. Height, and the given base.
a = Height
b = Base
c = Hypotenuse
Formula: a2 + b2 = c2
