1 Pythagoras 1 of 60 (Pythagoras)
2 2 of 60 The history of Pythagoras Theorem The theorem is named after the Greek mathematician and philosopher, Pythagoras. He lived around the year 400BC He also invented the music scale we now use. Although the Theorem is named after Pythagoras the result was known to many ancient civilizations including the Babylonians, Egyptians and Chinese, at least 1000 years before Pythagoras was born.
