The Pythagorean Proposition and the Enduring Beauty of Mathematics. In the 1800’s Charles Dodgson observed, “The Pythagorean theorem is as dazzlingly beautiful now as it was the day when Pythagoras first discovered it.” In this talk, we will explore the history of the theorem and the beauty that it still reveals today.
