In their peer-reviewed work, Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson present five new ways of proving Pythagoras' Theorem via trigonometry. They also detail a new method for finding proofs that yield at ...

Do you remember the Pythagoras Theorem, which you once studied in Mathematics, was a discovery of Pythagoras? In today’s time, people often wonder when Pythagoras was born, his full name, and his ...

The high schoolers presented their theory at a national mathematics conference. Two Black teenage girls from New Orleans say they could be the first mathematicians in at least 2,000 years to find ...

Two years ago, a couple of high school classmates each composed a mathematical marvel, a trigonometric proof of the Pythagorean theorem. Now, they’re unveiling 10 more. For over 2,000 years, such ...

Two high school students proved the Pythagorean theorem in a way that one early 20th-century mathematician thought would be impossible: by using trigonometry. Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson, both ...

If you have taken high school geometry, you have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem (even if you don’t remember it today). The theorem is an essential part of Euclidean geometry, and it goes as ...

In 2022, U.S. high school students Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson astonished teachers when they discovered a new way to prove Pythagoras’ theorem using trigonometry after entering a competition at ...
