Problem

• Filusuf phyagoras _500 SM) mengajarkan
keseimbanagan hidup duniawi dan ukhrawi
dengan mencetuskan dalil segiti sama siku/ teori
phyatgoras.

• rumusan dalil itu: jumlah kuadrat sisi yang


membntuk siku siku sama dengan kuadrat sisi
miringnya.
The values in the chart represent the sides of a right triangle. Complete the chart below.

9 16 25 25
25 144 169 169
.36 .64 1 1

•Compare the values of a2 + b2 and c2. Write an algebraic equation to represent this relationship.
c2 = a2 + b2
•Describe what the variables in your equation above represent by completing the following phrases:

right
- ∆XYZ is a _____________ it has a box (right angle)
triangle because ___________________________________________________________

LEGS
- a and b represent the _____________ they form the right angle of the triangle
of ∆XYZ because ________________________________________________
it is opposite the right angle of the triangle
HYPOTENUSE of ∆XYZ because ________________________________________________
- c represents the __________________
RIGHT
Pythagorean Theorem: If a triangle is a _____________ triangle,
HYPOTENUSE is equal to the
then the square of the longest side (______________)
SUM
____________of LEGS
the squares of the other two sides (__________).

OR
Example 1a
Find the value of x. Write your answer in simplest radical b a
form and as a decimal rounded to nearest hundredth.

SOLUTION
c
(hypotenuse) 2
= (a) + (b)
2 2

52 = 32 + b2

25= 9 + b2
16 = b2

4=b
Example 1a
Find the value of x. Write your answer in simplest radical
form and as a decimal rounded to nearest hundredth.

SOLUTION

Not possible because not a right triangle


Example 1c
Find the value of x. Write your answer in simplest radical
form and as a decimal rounded to nearest hundredth.  
SOLUTION
2
(hypotenuse)2 = (leg) + (leg)
2 2

x2 = 4 + 12

x2 = 16

x=4
Example 1c
Maritza and Melanie run 8 miles north and then 5 miles west. What is the shortest distance,
to the nearest hundredth of a mile, they must travel to return to their starting point?
Example 4
 

SOLUTION

(hypotenuse)2 ? (leg)2 + (leg)2 Pythagorean


Theorem
  Substitute.
64 ?16 + 48 Square
64 ?64 Add.
64 = 64 YES, these side lengths make
a right triangle!
Pythagorean Triples: Any set of _____ three ____________
whole numbers {a,
b, c} that satisfies _______________.
c2 = a2 + b2
IF it satisfies the rule stated above, then the three numbers
right
create a _______ triangle
____________.
Example 5: Determine if the following sets of numbers are Pythagorean Triples. Justify your
response.

 
Example 5: Determine if the following sets of numbers are Pythagorean Triples. Justify your
response.

b. {7, 9, 8} c. {37, 12, 35}

c2 ? a2 + b2 c2 ? a2 + b2
92 ? 72 + 82 372 ? 122 + 352
81 ? 49 + 64 1369 ? 144 + 1225

81 < 113 1369 = 1369

Since c2 < a2 + b2 then this set of Since c2 = a2 + b2 then this set of


numbers is NOT a Pythagorean Triple numbers is a Pythagorean Triple
