    This section explores key theorems in geometry, including the Pythagorean Theorem, Triangle Sum Theorem, and others that are fundamental to geometric reasoning.

  • 1.1

    Pythagoras’ Theorem

    Pythagoras’ Theorem identifies the relationship between the sides of a right-angled triangle, crucial for various applications in geometry and real life.

  • 1.2

    The Converse Of Pythagoras' Theorem

    The Converse of Pythagoras' Theorem helps identify right-angled triangles based on the relationship between the sides.

  • 1.3

    The Triangle Sum Theorem

    The Triangle Sum Theorem states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.

  • 1.4

    The Exterior Angle Theorem

    The Exterior Angle Theorem states that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.

  • 1.5

    Isosceles Triangle Theorem

    The Isosceles Triangle Theorem states that in an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal.

  • 1.6

    Basic Proportionality Theorem (Thales’ Theorem)

    The Basic Proportionality Theorem, or Thales' Theorem, states that a line drawn parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally.
