Thales' Theorem

Hello everyone,
I noticed that math is fun doesn't have a topic for Thales' Theorem (I searched it, do let me know if there is) Maybe add it in?


His dominion is an everlasting dominion, Which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one Which shall not be destroyed.

Re: Thales' Theorem

The Wikipedia page on it is good, if you want an immediate resource.

Re: Thales' Theorem

I guess, but by searching it online you can find lots of places where the theorem is stated and proved.

Re: Thales' Theorem

I have included the Theorem (statement) in the Formulas.
