1 3/11-3/12 7.2 The Pythagorean Theorem

2 Learning Target I can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing sides of right triangles

3 Simplify Radicals Practice

4 Pythagorean Theorem – In a right triangle, a² + b² = c² Where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

5 A Pythagorean triple is a set of non zero whole numbers that satisfies the equation a² + b² = c² EX: 3, 4, 5 EX 2: 7, 24, 25

6 Do 1-6 Do 7-9

7 Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem: If the square of the length of one side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.

8 Is this a right triangle?

9 If c² > a² + b², then the triangle is obtuse If c² < a² + b², then the triangle is acute

10 Do 14 - 19

11 DAY 2 Finish Lesson and do Worksheet with word problems

12 RECAP – Can you find missing lengths of right triangles? – Can you determine if a triangle is acute, obtuse, or right given the lengths?
