Answers

Special Right Triangles There are two special right triangles! We will use the Pythagorean Theorem to discover the relationships between the sides of the two special triangles.

Isosceles Right Triangle – a right triangle with two equal sides Each isosceles triangle is half a square so they appear in math and engineering frequently. If two sides are equal then the base angles are _________ The base angles of a right-isosceles triangle are ________ congruent 45 o

Investigation 1)

Isosceles Right Triangle Conjecture or Rule In an isosceles right triangle, if the legs have length s, then the hypotenuse has length _______

Lets try a few: Find the missing sides 1) 2) x x yy 52= x

Investigation ° 2 8

The other special triangle is a If you fold an equilateral triangle along one of its altitudes you get a triangle. Therefore, a triangle is one half an equilateral triangle so it appears in math and engineering frequently as well Side across from 30 o is the shortest side, AIMS reference calls this side ____ Side across from 60 o is the medium side Side across from 90 o is the hypotenuse

Triangle Conjecture In a triangle, (easy as 1, 2, 3) if the shorter side has length s, (think 1s) then the hypotenuse has length _____ and the longer leg has length ______ 30 60
