Nice question: In mathematics, the pythagorean theorem or pythagoras' theorem is a relation in euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle (right-angled triangle). In terms of areas, it states: in any right-angled triangle, the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares whose sides are the two legs

Not many...: The pythagorean theorem is a geometry formula to determine the length of the sides of a right triangle. Although useful in a number of different situations it is not often applied in most fields of medicine.
