Pythagorean Theorem Calculator
A simple Pythagorean Theorem calculator that accepts inputs for either two sides or one side and the hypotenuse, then calculates the remaining side using the Pythagorean Theorem. Both exact and approximate solutions are provided, as well as the complete Pythagorean Theorem version.
Bhaskara’s Proof
This app allows you to explore algebraic proof by the ancient Hindu mathematician Bhaskara, who used the properties of similarity to prove the theorem.
Proof by Shear Transformation
This app allows you to explore geometric proof that is a variation of the original Euclid’s proof. In this proof, the shear transformation is used to change the shapes without changing their areas.
Garfield's Proof
This app allows you to explore the algebraic proof offered by James A. Garfield, the twentieth president of the United States. He discovered this proof five years before he became the President.
Pythagoras' Proof
This app allows you to explore geometric proof offered by Greek mathematician Pythagoras himself.
Sliding Ladder Problem
One of the first calculus class problems is the sliding ladder. In this problem, a ladder is resting against a wall when, all of a sudden, it starts sliding down! In this problem you're solving for dx/dt or the rate at which the point B is moving away from the wall (point C). Input constraints: -The rate of slide must be negative for the ladder to slide down -The initial height of the ladder must be less than the ladders length
