We call a tetrahedron a "trirectangular " if it has a vertex (we call this is called a "right-angled" vertex) in which the planes of the three sides of the tetrahedron intersect at right angles. Prove the "three-dimensional Pythagorean theorem": The square of the area of the opposite face of the "right-angled" vertex of the ""trirectangular " tetrahedron is equal to the sum of the squares of the areas of three other sides of the tetrahedron .
