Pythagoras is credited with inventing the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This theorem is fundamental in mathematics and has numerous applications in geometry and trigonometry. It is named after Pythagoras because he is believed to have been the first to prove it mathematically, although it is possible that he learned it from earlier civilizations.
