Warm-Up 10-15 1.If a triangle has two side lengths of 12 and 5, what is the range of possible values for the third side? 2.
2
Classifying Triangles - Sides Definitions: Scalene: A triangle with no congruent sides Isosceles: A triangle with at least two congruent sides Equilateral: A triangle with three congruent sides Fill in the blanks with one of the following options: sometimes, never, always A scalene triangle is _____________________ an equilateral triangle An equilateral is _____________________ always an isosceles triangle An isosceles triangle is __________________ an equilateral triangle
3
Classifying Triangles - Angles Definitions: Acute: a triangle with three acute angles Equiangular triangle: a triangle with congruent angles Right: a triangle with one right angle Obtuse: a triangle with one obtuse angles Is it possible to have more than one obtuse angle? Fill in the blanks with one of the following options: sometimes, never, always An obtuse triangle is _____________________ an acute triangle An acute triangle is ______________________ an equiangular triangle And equiangular triangle is ___________________ an acute triangle
4
Pythagorean Theorem If a triangle is a right triangle, then the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.
5
What would the Converse be? If a triangle is a right triangle, then the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.
6
What would the Converse be? If the sum of the squares of the lengths of two sides of a triangle is equal to the square of the length of the third side, then the triangle is a right triangle.
7
Proof of Pythagorean Theorem
8
Practice – pg. 348 #2 The legs of a right triangle have lengths 10 and 24. What is the length of the hypotenuse?
9
Practice – pg. 348 #3 The hypotenuse of a right triangle has length 12. One leg has length 6. What is the length of the other leg? Express your answer in simplest radical form
10
Practice 5 3
11
The sides of a triangle measure 2.4, 3.2, and 4. Is this triangle a right triangle?
12
Pythagorean Inequalities
13
Example Classify the triangle using the lengths of its sides. a) 6, 8, 10 b) 4, 5, 6
14
Pythagorean Inequalities
15
Example Pg. 351 #7 Is a triangle with side lengths 7, 8, and 9 acute, obtuse, or right?
16
Pythagorean Triples A Pythagorean triple is a set of nonzero whole numbers a, b, and c that satisfy the equation a 2 + b 2 = c 2 The most common Pythagorean triples are: 3, 4, 5 5, 12, 13 8, 15, 17 7, 24, 25 Their multiples are also triples 6, 8, 10 __, __,__ __,__,__ __,__,__
17
Pythagorean Triples Why are these helpful to know? Less work! Super helpful on timed tests (AKA the SAT!)
