A Little Story Time...

Use the blocks as tiles and solve this problem the way Pythagoras did in the story To get from his high school to his home, Mike travels 3.0 miles East and then 4.0 miles North. What is the length of the shortest distance between Mike’s home and the high school?

How did each group solve it? Group 1Group 2Group 3Group 4Group 5

How would it look with tiles?

Is there an easier way to find the length of the hypotenuse without drawing with blocks? There is a simple formula that you can use that means the same thing as drawing squares on each side and adding them together. In this equation, a and be are the legs (the sides that touch the 90 degree angle). In this equation, c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).
