Pythagoras' Theorem

For those of you unfamiliar with Pythagoras'

Theorem, I'll explain it right now:

If you have the following right triangle,

then you can relate the lengths of the sides

with this neat little equation:

a² + b² = c²

This property is useful in real life as the

length of a side is unknown and the most basic

figure formed by intersecting lines is the triangle.

Here I had a little idea myself about this property,

but when I showed it to my teacher, she said it's

impossible to do it. I think differently:

I said it was possible to, given one length,

find the other 2 sides. I've formulated this into 

2 short algorithms(the shortest side also has to be
greater than 2). You also need to use an odd number. 

ODD NUMBERS

• Original number- a (This is your first number.)
• Square it. 
• Subtract one.
• Divide by 2.(call this number- b, your second number.) 
• Add one.(call this number- c, your third number.)

The numbers you get from this, will satisfy 

Pythagoras' Theorem.
