This lecture introduces the Pythagorean theorem, a fundamental concept in plane geometry. The theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. The instructor explains the notation used in geometry, demonstrates the theorem through geometric proofs, and explores the applications of the theorem in calculating areas of squares and rectangles.
