Is the truth of the Pythagorean theorem subject to the same uncertainty as the fate of Schrodinger's cat? Once you understand a proof of, say, the Pythagorean theorem, you can be sure this knowledge won't be contradicted by any future discovery nor changed by any new insight.

The tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are located 47 degrees apart. It can be argued that understanding the relevance of Pythagoras and Euclid's 47th Proposition to Speculative Freemasonry is nearly as enigmatic as Pythagoras and the now ancient Order that claimed his name. I finally decided that the best hook was to begin by analyzing the most famous proposition of euclidean geometry: The Pythagorean Theorem (PT). The Pythagorean Theorem is Proposition 47 of Euclid's Elements. In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem (in American English) or Pythagoras' theorem (in British English) is a relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle (right-angled triangle in British English). We call these solutions the Pythagorean Numbers. @frostwow I believe it is called “The Pythagorean Proposition” by Elisha Loomis. If p, then q;; q is true;; therefore q is true. Cesar proclaimed “Veni, vidi, vici” in 47 B.C.. A geometrical proof of the Pythagorean Theorem. Proposition: the complete set of Pythagorean numbers without duplicates is: z = a^2 + b^2 ; x = a^2 - b^2 ; y = 2ab. 32, “no reason whatever was in anyone's mind when the 47th proposition gradually came to be recognized as the dintinguishing mark of a Past Master.” I shall come back to this point later. The Pythagorean theorem is not about any particular triangle with a specific shape or size. From the Algebra 1 course by Derek Owens.
