  1. Warm Up Problem of the Day Lesson Presentation Lesson Quizzes

  2. Warm Up Find the distance between each pair of points. 1. (8, 2) and (8, 7)‏ 2. (–2, 4) and (5, 4)‏ 3. (–1, –1) and (9, –1)‏ 4. (–8, –4) and (–2, –4)‏ 5 units 7 units 10 units 6 units

  3. Problem of the Day The sum of the squares of two positive numbers is 100. One number is two more than the other. What are the numbers? 6 and 8

  4. Learn to use the Distance Formula and the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse to solve problems.

  5. 58 = c Additional Example 1: Marketing Application What is the diagonal length of the projector screen? Use the Pythagorean Theorem 72 + 32 = c2 Simplify. 49 + 9 = c2 58 = c2 Add. 7.615c The diagonal length should be given as about 7.62 feet.

  6. 12 ft 8 ft 208 = c Check It Out: Example 1 What is the diagonal length of the projector screen? Use the Pythagorean Theorem 122 + 82 = c2 Simplify. 144 + 64 = c2 208 = c2 Add. 14.42c The diagonal length should be given as about 14.4 feet.

  7. Additional Example 2A: Finding Distance on the Coordinate Plane Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. J and K Let A be (x1, y1)² and B be (x2, y2)². Use the Distance Formula.

  8. d = (0 – (–4))² + (–3 – 0)² d = (4)² + (–3)² d = 16 + 9 Additional Example 2A Continued Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. Substitute. Subtract. Simplify powers. The distance between A and B is 5 units.

  9. Additional Example 2B: Finding Distance on the Coordinate Plane Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. L and M Let A be (x1, y1)² and B be (x2, y2)². Use the Distance Formula.

  10. d = (5– 4)² + (–3 – 0)² d = (1)² + (–3)² d = 1 + 9 Additional Example 2B Continued Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. Substitute. Subtract. Simplify powers. The distance between L and M is about 3.2 units.

  11. Check It Out: Example 2A Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. J and L Let A be (x1, y1)² and B be (x2, y2)². Use the Distance Formula.

  12. d = (4– (–4))² + (0 – 0)² d = (8)² + (0)² d = 64 + 0 Check It Out: Example 2A Continued Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. Substitute. Subtract. Simplify powers. The distance between J and L is 8 units.

  13. Check It Out: Example 2B Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. K and M Let A be (x1, y1)² and B be (x2, y2)². Use the Distance Formula.

  14. d = ((–4) – 0)² + (– 3 – (–3)² d = (–4)² + (0)² d = 16 + 0 Check It Out: Example 2B Continued Find the distances between the points to the nearest tenth. Substitute. Subtract. Simplify powers. The distance between K and M is 4 units.

  15. Additional Example 3A: Identifying a Right Triangle Tell whether the given side lengths form a right triangle. 9, 12, 15 a2 + b2 = c2 Compare a² + b² to c². 92 + 122 = 152 Substitute. 81 + 144 = 225 Simplify. Add. 225 = 225 √ The side lengths form a right triangle.

  16. Additional Example 3B: Identifying a Right Triangle Tell whether the given side lengths form a right triangle. 8, 10, 13 a2 + b2 = c2 Compare a² + b² to c². 82 + 102 = 132 Substitute. 63 + 100 = 169 Simplify. Add. 163 ≠ 169 x The side lengths do not form a right triangle.

  17. Check It Out: Example 3A Tell whether the given side lengths form a right triangle. 5, 6, 9 a2 + b2 = c2 Compare a² + b² to c². 52 + 62 = 92 Substitute. 25 + 36 = 81 Simplify. Add. 61 ≠ 81 x The side lengths do not form a right triangle.

  18. Check It Out: Example 3B Tell whether the given side lengths form a right triangle. 8, 15, 17 a2 + b2 = c2 Compare a² + b² to c². 82 + 152 = 172 Substitute. 64 + 225 = 289 Simplify. Add. 289 = 289 √ The side lengths form a right triangle.
