Pythagorean theorem

a, b are legs. c is the hypotenuse (across from the right angle). Pythagorean Theorem The sum of the squares of the sides of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotentuse. We can represent this relationship using a formula… 𝑎 2 + 𝑏 2 = 𝑐 2 a, b are legs. c is the hypotenuse (across from the right angle).

Ok so what was the point? The point of using Pythagorean theorem is to find missing sides of Right Triangles. We can identify the parts of a right triangle, and use them in Pythagorean Theorem!

Using a2 + b2 = c2 x 15 20 Looking for length of the hypotenuse 𝑎2 + 𝑏2 = 𝑐2 Pythagorean Theorem Looking for length of the hypotenuse 152 + 202 = 𝑐2 Substitution 225 + 400 = 𝑐2 Simplify x 15 625 = 𝑐2 Simplify 625 = 𝑐 2 20 Square root both sides 25=𝑐 Simplify

Using a2 + b2 = c2 10 6 x Looking for length of a Leg! 𝑎2 + 𝑏2 = 𝑐2 Pythagorean Theorem Looking for length of a Leg! 62 +𝑏2 =102 Substitution 36 + 𝑏 2 =100 Simplify 10 6 𝑏 2 =64 Subtraction 𝑏 2 = 64 x Square root both sides 𝑏=8 Simplify

You Try! 3 13 8 x x 5 a2 + b2 = c2 a2 + b2 = c2 82 + 32 = c2

Converse of Pythagorean theorem If 𝑎2 + 𝑏2 = 𝑐2, then the triangle is a right triangle If 𝑎2 + 𝑏2> 𝑐2 then the triangle is ACUTE If 𝑎2 + 𝑏2< 𝑐2 then the triangle is OBTUSE In english: If we know that the leg squared, plus the other leg squared, is equal to the hypotenuse squared…Then the triangle must be a RIGHT TRIANGLE!

Example: Are these the side lengths of a right triangle? 𝑎2 + 𝑏2 = 𝑐2 Pythagorean Theorem 3 32 +42 =52 Substitution 9 +16 =25 Simplify 4 25 =25 5 Simplify YES! This is a right triangle 

You Try!: 9 9 7 6 16 7 Are these the side lengths of a right triangle? NO! Not a triangle! 16 7 NO! This is a not a right triangle! It is ACUTE!!

Pythagorean Triples Pythagorean triples are three positive integers such that 𝑎 2 + 𝑏 2 = 𝑐 2 . There are a few that are easy to remember, like the following: 3,4,5 5,12,13 7,24,25 To determine if three sets of numbers form a triple, we plug them into 𝑎 2 + 𝑏 2 = 𝑐 2 and see if we reach equality. For example: 3 2 + 4 2 = 5 2 9+16=25 25=25
