CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA ABORDAGEM HISTÓRICA E DO GEOGEBRA PARA O ENSINO DO TEOREMA DE PITÁGORAS: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA DA LITERATURA

Abstract

The Pythagorean Theorem is one of the most important topics in Geometry within Basic Education and is widely used in solving problems involving measurements, distances, and metric relationships. Despite its relevance, many students experience difficulties in understanding its concepts and applications, especially when teaching is conducted in a decontextualized manner and focused mainly on memorizing formulas. In this context, the History of Mathematics and digital technologies have been identified as alternatives capable of promoting more meaningful learning experiences. Therefore, this study aims to analyze, through an integrative literature review, the contributions of the historical approach and the use of GeoGebra software to the teaching and learning of the Pythagorean Theorem. The research is characterized as qualitative and descriptive and will be developed through the survey and analysis of scientific publications available in databases such as Google Scholar, SciELO, the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD), and the CAPES Periodicals Portal. Scientific articles, dissertations, and theses published between 2015 and 2025 that address the teaching of the Pythagorean Theorem, the History of Mathematics, and the use of GeoGebra in educational contexts will be considered. The expected results are to identify contributions of these approaches to the understanding of geometric concepts, the contextualization of mathematical content, and the development of more investigative and meaningful pedagogical practices in Mathematics Education.
