What is the equation for the Pythagorean Theorem?
  1. A³ + B³ = C³
  2. A³ -B³ = C³
  3. A² + B² = C²
  4. ABC² = A²B²C²
Explanation
Answer: C-The equation for the Pythagorean Theorem is A² + B² = C². The theorem states that in any right-angled triangle, the area of the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle: C) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares of the 2legs (the 2sides that meet at a right angle: A & B).
