The Pythagorean Theorem The Ladder Problem

Right Triangles Longest side is the hypotenuse, side c (opposite the 90 o angle) The other two sides are the legs, sides a and b Pythagoras developed a formula for finding the length of the sides of any right triangle

The Pythagorean Theorem “For any right triangle, the sum of the areas of the two small squares is equal to the area of the larger.” a 2 + b 2 = c 2 a 2 + b 2 = c 2

Proof

Ladder Problem A ladder leans against a second-story window of a house. If the ladder is 25 meters long, and the base of the ladder is 7 meters from the house, how high is the window?

Ladder Problem Solution First draw a diagram that shows the sides of the right triangle. Label the sides: –Ladder is 25 m –Distance from house is 7 m Use a 2 + b 2 = c 2 to solve for the missing side. Distance from house: 7 meters

Ladder Problem Solution b 2 = b 2 = 625 b 2 = 576 b = 24 m How did you do?
