This formula is extremely essential especially later on. Note that this formula only applies to right triangles.  The formula is

a^2+b^2=c^2

A and B being the two legs.

C being the hypotenuse of the triangle.

The hypotenuse (c) is the side opposite the largest angle in the triangle.  In this case for a right triangle, the hypotenuse will always be opposite of the right angle.

For use with triangles, the theorem is that A Squared + B squared = C squared. C represents the Hypotenuse and A/B represent the other two legs.
