Popis:	Mathematics is an ever-growing subject. Included in this growth is a process of simplification in which formulas and relations often arrived at inductively or derived by long and difficult methods are later found to follow easily and directly from other findings. Advanced mathematics abounds with fascinating results of this kind. Similar ones also exist in elementary mathematics. I have found a property of right triangles, given by the following theorem, from which students can deduce, in a surprising and straightforward manner, some of the most significant relations encountered in high school mathematics.
