Geometry | The Super-Pythagorean Theorem [Diagonal of a Prism]

The video introduces the Super Pythagorean Theorem, useful for solving geometry problems involving diagonals in rectangular prisms. It explains the theorem's application, using a problem to find the diagonal length of a prism with given side lengths. The video demonstrates the calculation process and highlights the theorem's efficiency compared to traditional methods. It concludes by noting the theorem's utility in exams like the GRE.

What is the approximate length of the diagonal D when the side lengths are 5 cm, 7 cm, and 9 cm?

Explain how the Super Pythagorean theorem relates to the traditional Pythagorean theorem.
