Pythagorean Theorem Chapter 5 Lesson 5

Objective No need For notes On this slide

Here we have a triangle with the lengths of each of the three sides 5 4 3

Let’s take the lengths of each side and make a square for each of them 5 4 3

Let’s find the area of each square? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 1 2 3 4 16 17 18 19 20 5 6 7 8 21 22 23 24 25 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Now, let’s add the two smaller areas together. 25 16 + 9

It turns out this is true for every right triangle Notice how the sum of the two smaller squares equals the larger square? 25 It turns out this is true for every right triangle + = ? 9 9 16

The Pythagorean Theorem states: “The sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle are equal to the square of the hypotenuse.” + = 25 9 16

a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean Theorem The formula for the Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2 = c2 The variable ______ represents the hypotenuse. The variables a & b represent the _______ of the triangle.

Steps to Solve for a missing side TAKE NOTES Step 1: Write the formula Step 2: Substitute known values for the variables. Step 3: Solve for the missing variable. Lets break this down a little further…

Finding the missing side of a right triangle No need For notes On this slide Finding the missing side of a right triangle Any time you are asked to find the missing side of a right triangle, the problem will generally boil down to 1 of 2 scenarios. Scenario 1: You have both legs and you have to find the hypotenuse Scenario 2: You have one leg and the hypotenuse, and you have to find the other leg.

Scenario 1: Need the hypotenuse TAKE NOTES Find x x 8 ft 15 ft Step 1: Write the formula. a2 + b2 = c2 Step 2: Substitute or “Plug-in” the lengths of the legs into the Pythagorean Theorem for the “a” and “b” variables. 82 + 152 = c2 Step 3: Simplify the side without the “c” by squaring the two numbers and adding them together. 64 + 225 = c2 We are not done yet… We have found c2, but not just plain c. 289 = c2 Step 4: Solve for c by using the square root. We were told to solve for x, not c, so we should replace the c with an x. 289 = c2 17 = c x = 17

Scenario 1 What does all of this boil down to? Square both legs. Add them together. Take the square root of the result. You have your hypotenuse.

You try this one in your notes. TAKE NOTES You try this one in your notes. x Find x 5 ft 12 ft 52 + 122 = x2 25 + 144 = x2 169 = x2 Answer: x = 13

Try this one!

Scenario 2: Have Hypotenuse, need one leg TAKE NOTES Scenario 2: Have Hypotenuse, need one leg Find x. Round to the nearest hundredth. 14 in x 6 in Can we do this the same way we did the other example? Not exactly the same way, but similar. Let’s start this one the same way we did the other ones and see what happens…

Scenario 2: Have Hypotenuse, need one leg Find x. Round to the nearest hundredth. 14 in x a2 + b2 = c2 Step 1: Write the formula. Step 2: Substitute or “Plug-in” the lengths of the legs … But we don’t have both legs… 6 in Which number goes where? You need to identify the hypotenuse. It’s the one opposite of the right angle. The hypotenuse is always going to be c.

Scenario 2: Have Hypotenuse, need one leg Find x. Round to the nearest hundredth. 14 in x a2 + b2 = c2 Step 1: Write the formula. Step 2: Identify the hypotenuse 6 in Step 3: Substitute or “Plug-in” the hypotenuse (14) for c and the other known measurement (6) for b. a2 + 62 = 142 Step 4: Simplify by squaring both the numbers. a2 + 36 = 196 At this point, in the previous example, we added the two squares together. This time, the squares are on opposite sides of the equals sign. So, to combine them, we have to do the opposite operation. a2 + 36 = 196 Step 5: Subtract the smaller from the larger. – 36 – 36 a2 = 160

Scenario 2: Have Hypotenuse, need one leg Find x. Round to the nearest hundredth. 14 in x a2 + b2 = c2 Step 1: Write the formula. Step 2: Identify the hypotenuse 6 in Step 3: Substitute or “Plug-in” the hypotenuse (14) for c and the other known measurement (6) for b. a2 + 62 = 142 Step 4: Simplify by squaring both the numbers. a2 + 36 = 196 Step 5: Subtract the smaller from the larger. a2 + 36 = 196 – 36 – 36 Step 6: Solve for a by using the square root. a2 = 160 a2 = 160 a = 12.65 a = 12.64911

Scenario 2 What does all of this boil down to? No need For notes On this slide Scenario 2 What does all of this boil down to? Square the hypotenuse and leg. Subtract the leg squared from the hypotenuse squared. Take the square root of the result. You have your missing leg.

Try this one!

Discuss: What is the difference between the 2 scenarios? No need For notes On this slide Both have you squaring the given sides. Both have you using the square root at the end. The only difference is in the middle. Scenario 1 has you adding the numbers Scenario 2 has you subtracting the smaller from the larger.

What does this mean? When you have two sides of a right triangle, you can find the third using the Pythagorean Theorem. You can do this by squaring both of the measurements you have. Add or subtract the two numbers depending on whether or not you have the hypotenuse. (Subtract if you have it, add if you don’t) Find the square root of the result and you have your missing side!

The converse Sometimes a problem will simply ask you to decide if a triangle is a RIGHT triangle or not. Plug the side lengths into the formula to find out.
