THE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM In a right triangle, the side opposite the right angle is longest side.It is called the hypotenuse, the other side are called the legs of the triangle Theorem :the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squareof the lengths of the two legs c Hypotenuse Leg a b Leg

THE DISTANCE FORMULA To find the distance between two points A and B in the coordinate plane we can use the pythagorean theorem Y B 6 ● 6 – 3 = 3 A 3 ● 5 – 1 = 4 ● 5 ● 1 X 0
Given points Aand B , find the distance between point A and B Y B A X 0
Exercise : find the distance between each pair of point! • A(1, 2), B(4, -2) • P(-1, 7), Q(2, -3) • R(0, -6), S(-3, 4) • K(-3, -4), L(6, 2) • M(-2, -4), N(-6, -3) Back
