Based on the information, students at SMP Negeri 3 Touluaan have relatively low mathematics scores and face difficulties in learning Pythagorean theorem material, which impacts their learning outcomes. To achieve better learning results, one alternative learning model that can improve student outcomes is the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach. The purpose of this research, as presented in this thesis, is to determine the students' learning outcomes after implementing the CTL approach in teaching Pythagorean theorem material to Grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 3 Touluaan, and to assess the completeness of learning outcomes after using the CTL approach. The research methodology used is quantitative descriptive statistics, with datancollection techniques including questionnaires, observation, and documentation. Basednon the results of the study, the influence of contextual mathematics learning on students' outcomes in Pythagorean theorem material at SMP Negeri 3 Touluaan has been positive. Supporting factors in the learning process include high student interest in learning, while inhibiting factors are a lack of foundational knowledge in geometric shapes, angles, and related topics, as well as some students' reluctance to express their opinions and their diverse backgrounds.
