Is there a different French spelling for hypotenuse, Francis?

Exactly.

No wonder it's so close as the English and the French words both come from the Greek hupoteinousa.

This means "tense under", the prefix hupos meaning under.

That's for sure.

This thread is so boring I'm considering re-naming it, "YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD II."

Sure.... a plain square.

I find find a^2 + b^2 = c^2 emminently predictable. The triangle is always right.
