Pythagorean Theorem

Chapter 0: Intro And Preliminary

Implications are strewn throughout mathematics (see Formal Logic), even if not obviously: Given the Pythagorean Theorem, a2+b2=c2a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}, we realize it can not be a statement, as it contains uncaptured/unquantified free variables, but if we quantify that aa and bb are the legs of a right triangle, with hypotenuse cc, we now have a statement.
