In
Carpentry
they
use
what
is
called
a
3,4,5
triangle
(or
multiples
of
3,4,5
i.e.
9,12,15)
to
produce
right
angles
accurately.
If
you
construct
a
line
3
inches
long
and
hinge
another
line
off
of
it
that
is
4
inches
long
and
then
connect
the
ends
with
a
5
inch
line
it
will
produce
a
right
angle
triangle.
This
will
help
us
to
understand
the
Pythagorean
Theorem. (Theorem is a statement which requires proof)
