Review 5.7 & 5.8 1/25
5.7: Pythagorean Theorem • What is the Pythagorean Theorem? • a2 + b2 = c2 • Simplifying radicals • Pythagorean triple • Classifying triangles • Right, obtuse and acute • Right: c2 = a2+b2 • Obtuse: c2 > a2+b2 • Acute: c2 < a2+b2
Example 1: Together Find the value of x. Give your answer in simplest radical form. x 6 • a2 + b2 = c2Pyth. Thm. • 62 + 32 = x2 Substitution 3 • 45 = x2 Simplify • x = 3√5 Find the positive square root & simplify
Example 2: Together Find the missing side length. Tell if the sides form a Pythagorean triple. Explain 2 1.6 a2 + b2 = c2 Pyth. Thm. a2 + (1.6)2 = 22 Substitution a2 = 1.44 Solve for a2 a = 1.2 Find the positive square root. The side lengths do not form a Pythagorean triple because 1.2 and 1.6 are not whole numbers
