Math II Day 21 (9-2-10) Standard MM2G1.a Determine the lengths of sides of 30-60-90 triangles. Today’s Question: How do I find the length of a side of a right triangle with only one side and an angle given?
What do you know about Triangles hypotenuse Area = (1/2)bh a2 + b2 = c2 isosceles right equilateral altitude 180 degrees 3 sides short leg long leg
Pythagorean Theorem Review 5 a2 +b2 = c2 c a a2 +42 = 52 ? a2 +16 = 25 4 b a2 = 9 a = 3
Pythagorean Theorem Review 20 a2 +b2 = c2 c a 10 ? b Your final answer should be simplified, not a decimal
