we know that

In a right triangle we have

two legs and one hypotenuse

Let

a,b -----> the legs of the right triangle

c-----> the hypotenuse of the right triangle (the greater side)

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

[tex]c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

The length of the hypotenuse squared is the length of one leg squared plus the length of another leg squared
