    Pythagoras' theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. The document applies Pythagoras' theorem to solve for the length of a ladder leaning against a wall, showing that the length of the ladder is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the horizontal distance of the base from the wall and the vertical height of the ladder against the wall.
