  1. Chapter 8 Right Triangles and Trigonometry

  2. Solve for the missing side length in simplest radical form:

  3. Pythagorean Theorem: Pythagorean Theorem Converse:

  4. Pythagorean Triples: 3 positive integers a, b, c such that 5, 12, 13 3, 4, 5 8, 15, 17 7, 24, 25 12, 35, 37 11, 60, 61 Any multiple of each triple with also satisfy Example: 6, 8, 10 = 2 X (3, 4, 5)

  5. Theorem 8-3: If the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is greater than the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is obtuse.

  6. Theorem 8-4: If the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is less than the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is acute.

  7. Examples: Determine if the triangle is right, acute, or obtuse. 5, 7, 9 2) 3) 3.1, 4.5, 5.2 4)

  8. Use Pythagorean Theorem to Solve for x:

  9. Special Right Triangles 45°-45°-90° Triangle Theorem: In a 45°-45°-90° Triangle, both legs are congruent and the length of the hypotenuse is times the length of a leg.

  10. Special Right Triangles 30°-60°-90° Triangle Theorem: In a 30°-60°-90° Triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter leg. The length of the longer leg is times the length of the shorter leg.

  11. Examples:

  12. Find the values of x and y in simplest radical form

  13. Determine what type of triangle each is based on the given side lengths: 1) 5, 9, 4 2) 10, 9, 5 Find the length of the missing side:
