Re: Geometry Theorem?

In college you'd have to buy your textbooks (in America).

Anyways, I learned that last year in Chapter 7 or something.

But when you have an altitude from the right angle that's perpendicular to the hypotenuse, all right triangles in it are similar. So you can also use CPCTC to get two other corollaries to it. But either way, your theorem is not original.
