Chapter 9 Right Triangles and Trigonometry Section 9.2 Pythagorean Theorem PROVE THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM USE THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

PROVING THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM The Pythagorean Theorem is one of the most famous theorems in mathematics. The relationship it describes has been known for thousands of years.

PROVING THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM THEOREM 9.4 Pythagorean Theorem In a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs. b a c c 2 = a 2 + b 2

A C B D a c b f e Given: ABC, ACB is a Right Angle Prove: a2 + b2 = c2 Statements Reasons 1. The leg is the geometric mean between the adjacent piece and the hypotenuse 2. Cross-Product 3. Addition Property of = 4. Distributive Prop 5. Segment Addition 6. Substitution

USE THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

USING THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM A Pythagorean triple is a set of three positive integers a, b, and c that satisfy the equation c 2 = a 2 + b 2. For example, the integers 3, 4, and 5 form a Pythagorean triple because 5 2 = 32 + 4 2.

(hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 Finding the Length of a Hypotenuse 12 x 5 Find the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Tell whether the side lengths form a Pythagorean triple. SOLUTION (hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 Pythagorean Theorem

(hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 Finding the Length of a Leg Many right triangles have side lengths that do not form a Pythagorean triple. x 14 7 Find the length of the leg of the right triangle. SOLUTION (hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 Pythagorean Theorem

(hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 Finding the Missing Length SOLUTION (hypotenuse)2 = (leg)2 + (leg)2 Pythagorean Theorem

Indirect Measurement SUPPORT BEAM These skyscrapers are connected by a skywalk with support beams. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the approximate length of each support beam.

Indirect Measurement 23.26 m 47.57 m x support beams Each support beam forms the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The right triangles are congruent, so the support beams are the same length. x 2 = (23.26)2 + (47.57)2 Pythagorean Theorem x = (23.26)2 + (47.57)2 Find the positive square root. x  52.95 Use a calculator to approximate. The length of each support beam is about 52.95 meters.
