USING THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM TO FIND MISSING SIDES REVIEW: USING THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM TO FIND MISSING SIDES

PRACTICE: Identify the unknown side as a leg or hypotenuse PRACTICE: Identify the unknown side as a leg or hypotenuse. Then, find the unknown side length of the right triangle. Write your answer in the simplest radical form. The unknown side is not attached to the right angle so it is a hypotenuse of the triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing leg: (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 + (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 = (ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒) 2 (17) 2 + (32) 2 = 𝑥 2 289+1024= 𝑥 2 1313= 𝑥 2 1313 = 𝑥 2 𝟏𝟑𝟏𝟑 =𝒙≈𝟑𝟔.𝟐 𝑥 17 32

PRACTICE: Identify the unknown side as a leg or hypotenuse PRACTICE: Identify the unknown side as a leg or hypotenuse. Then, find the unknown side length of the right triangle. Write your answer in the simplest radical form. The unknown side is attached to the right angle so it is a leg of the triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing leg: (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 + (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 = (ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒) 2 (26) 2 + 𝑥 2 = (58) 2 676+ 𝑥 2 =3364 − 676 − 676 𝑥 2 =2688 𝑥 2 = 2688 𝒙=𝟖 𝟒𝟐 ≈𝟓𝟏.𝟖 26 𝑥 58

PRACTICE: Identify the unknown side as a leg or hypotenuse PRACTICE: Identify the unknown side as a leg or hypotenuse. Then, find the unknown side length of the right triangle. Write your answer in the simplest radical form. 6 8 12 𝑥 The unknown side is not attached to the right angle so it is a hypotenuse of the triangle. (There are two right triangles. You must find a before you can find x.) Use the Pythagorean theorem to find a: (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 + (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 = (ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒) 2 (6) 2 + (8) 2 = 𝑎 2 36+64= 𝑎 2 100= 𝑎 2 100 = 𝑎 2 𝟏𝟎=𝒂 𝑎 =10 Use the Pythagorean theorem again to find x: (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 + (𝑙𝑒𝑔) 2 = (ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒) 2 (10) 2 + (12) 2 = 𝑥 2 100+144= 𝑥 2 244= 𝑥 2 244 = 𝑥 2 2 61 =𝒙≈𝟏𝟓.𝟔
