Pythagorean Theorem & its Converse

8 th Grade Math Standards M.8.G.6- Explain a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse. M.8.G.7 - Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine unknown side lengths in right triangles in real-world and mathematical problems in two and three dimensions.

Back to the Basics Right Triangles need to have one 90° angle Right Triangles have 2 legs and a hypotenuse.

Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem 5² + 12² = 13² = = 169 4² + 5² = 6² = ǂ 36
