Pythagorean Reciprocals (Posted on 2020-02-05) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Let a and b be the lengths of the two legs of a right triangle and let c be the length of the hypotenuse. The Pythagorean Theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

If the reciprocals of the legs are used instead to form 1/a^2 + 1/b^2 = 1/x^2, then what is special about x?
