Find the Error: For the missing side length.

• Step 1 is the first place the error shows up

• Step 2 is the first place the error shows up

• Step 3 is the first place the error shows up

• Step 4 is the first place the error shows up

• Step 5 is the first place the error shows up

To prove that three side lengths form a right triangle we ...

• Use Slope

• Use the Converse of Pythagorean Theorem

• Add the two smaller sides to make sure they are larger than the third side
