Come join us at the Seattle Universal Math Museum and celebrate the magic of right triangles on the last Pythagorean triple date of the century!

A Pythagorean triple is a set of three integers that satisfies the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c². On 10/24/26, the date itself forms a Pythagorean triple: 10² + 24² = 26².

Come celebrate this special mathematical event with right-triangle-themed exhibits and activities. Explore, experiment, solve puzzles, and discover the surprising ways right triangles show up in mathematics and the world around us.

Free to attend and fun for all ages!

What does it actually mean to be a “math person”?

Maybe it’s not about being fast, getting every answer right, or always feeling confident. Maybe it’s simply about being a person who is willing to engage with math.

How we feel about math influences how we solve problems, respond to challenges, and think about our own abilities—and those experiences can shape how we teach, mentor, parent, and lead.

Join us at The Museum of Flight for an interactive conversation about the psychology of math, confidence, and learning.

📍 The Museum of Flight
