The standard Pythagorean theorem is used on an everyday basis in professions like architecture, building construction, navigation, spaceflight, computer sciences, and more. Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya ...
Two US high schoolers believe they have cracked a mathematical mystery left unproven for centuries. Calcea Johnson and Ne'Kiya Jackson looked at the Pythagorean theorem, foundational to trigonometry.
Some mathematicians have stated that proving the theorem using trigonometry is impossible without circular reasoning, because trigonometry relies so much on the theorem itself. Two New Orleans high ...
In a new peer-reviewed study, Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson outlined 10 ways to solve the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry, including a proof they discovered in high school. When you ...
Two high school seniors have presented their proof of the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry — which mathematicians thought to be impossible — at an American Mathematical Society meeting. When you ...
Two New Orleans teens joined an exclusive club of mathematicians when they discovered trigonometry proofs for Pythagorean's Theorem. Two teens in New Orleans joined an exclusive club of mathematicians ...
NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – Two students at a school in New Orleans have presented evidence of a mathematical discovery that scholars have been trying to prove for 2,000 years. School officials at St. Mary’s ...
