PYTHAGOREAN THEORY

is changing to

“RIGHT ANGLE

TRIANGLE THEORUM”

Because it has been discovered that he may not have been the first person to have actually discovered it, but is the first person recognized to have found it… likely due to the colour of his skin?

PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

  • Legs
    • Two sides (a and b) that form the right angle

  • Hypotenuse
    • Side opposite the right angle; called c

  • Formula
    • a2 + b2 = c2

Cirque De Soleil is setting up a large tent for their amazing show!

Two poles, QU and RT, are placed perpendicular to the ground and 12m apart.

Pole QU is 4m in length and pole RT is 7.5m�in length.

A tarp is placed over the poles and secured to the ground at P, 3m from the base of pole QU, and S, P 3 U 12 4 m from the base of pole RT.

Determine P Q + QR + RS, the length of the tarp.

You can use The Pythagorean Theorem to solve many kinds of problems.

MRSTAV

Suppose you drive directly west for 48 km,

Then turn south and drive for 36 km.

How far are you from where you started?

Using The Pythagorean Theorem,

48

36

c

362

=

c2

MRSTAV

47 of 50

Why?

Can you see that we have a right triangle?

48

c

c2

MRSTAV

Which side is the hypotenuse?

Which sides are the legs?

48

36

c

482

362

+

=

c2

MRSTAV

49 of 50

Then all we need to do is calculate:

c2 = 482 + 362

c2 = 2304 + 1296

c2 = 3600

c2 = √3600

c = 60

MRSTAV

50 of 50

So you end up 60 km from where you started.
