Question
Primitive sets derived from this statement can be found in Berggrens’s tree. A proof of this statement that involves a rotated replica of the object-of-interest and calculating the area of a trapezoid is attributed to James A. Garfield. The l-2 norm can be computed from a generalization of this statement in Euclidean n-space. When n equals 2, the equation described by Fermat’s last theorem is the equation associated with this statement. The term “2 a b cosine gamma” is added to this statement by the law of cosines.For 10 points, name this statement that can be given by the equation (read slowly) “a-squared plus b-squared equals c-squared.” ■END■
