Pythagoras theorem

In Maths for the past few weeks we have been looking at a formula called the Pythagoras' Theorem and how it works  


                                  let's use this triangle as an example

Example:
1.) Draw a Diagram and put the labels ( Right Triangle )
2.) Put the label A= ,B= and C =
            Ex: A = 10 
                   B = 6
                   C = ? = 
3.) Write down what is given.  
4.) Show the Formula/ proof
The square root needs to be at 2
Ex: A (2) + B (2) = C (2)
       10 (squared) + 6 (square) = C (2)
      10 x 10 + 6 x 6 = C (2)
      100 +24 = c(2)
       C = 124
