The Pythagorean Theorem is used in math to 

find the length of the Hypotenuse or Legs of a 

triangle. Mathamaticians use the equation, 

(a*a)+(b*b)=(c*c). Lets say you have a 

triangle, take the legs, which are 6 and 9 and 

square them.  

We need to take 6*6=36 and 9*9=81 and add 

them together, 36+81=107. 107=c*c so we 

need to square root it. 

On the sandy floors of the ocean, Theorem 

sways on the kelp groves. Theorem is no ordinary 

seahorse, he can solve math equations to help 

the ocean animals. The problem he now faces is 

how to avoid, the constent threat of Sharko, the 

grumpy shark.

All of the sea creatures hide in the kelp, 

except for Ozzie the Sea Turtle, who is 

protected from Sharko. While defending 

the rest of the animals think of a plan to 

keep themselves safe from Sharko. They 

had come up with the plan that if the build 

a wall that was shaped like a triangle they 

could defeat Sharko. 

They figured out that if they put two triangle 

shaped figured as a wall that they could get a 

sturdy and functional wall built but until then 

they were unseen. No one except for Sharko 

and the Lonely Fish. The team figured that 

they needed to first make a complete triangle. 

They figured a length of 2 Sea Ripples would 

be long enough, and a height of 1 Sea Wave.

They began there work early in the day so that 

they could get it done by the end of 1 Sea 

Light. They wondered if a triangle with lengths 

of 1, 2, and 3 would make a triangle. 

"It doesn't make a triangle" they all agreed. 

And it does not form a right triangle. What 

about with the lengths of 6, 8, and 10. They 

did the math. (6*6)+(8*8)=100, and 10*10=100, 

this means that they had the correct side 

lengths. 

With all of the walls built the Ocean 

Animals would be safe from any harm. They 

had successfully built a strong rock wall 

with the help of Theorem. Sharko then 

realized that he was defeated so he 

headed off to find a new neighborhood to 

join.
