MidTerm Review-Pythagorean Theorem

What is correct formula for Pythagorean Theorem?

• A + B = C

• X + Y = XY

• A²+B²=C²

• 90 + a + b = X

What does the Pythagorean Theorem prove?

• Nothing at all, very useless.

• It shows on how to prove if a triangle is an acute one or an obtuse triangle.

• Knowing if the shape is a right triangle or no triangle.

• A geometric relationship between the three sides of a right triangle.

What do the letters A and B stand for in the formula?

• The perimeter of the triangle.

• The legs of a right triangle.

• Random and unknown numbers and the letters are placeholders for the numbers we have to find out.

• The hypotenuse of the triangle.

What does the letter C stand for in the formula? (Capital first letter)

What triangle is utilized in the Pythagorean Theorem?

• Obtuse triangle

• Acute triangle

• Right triangle

What is the correct answer for C, the hypotenuse?

• ~5.3

• 10

• 10²

• ~5.3²

What is an operation you have to do on both sides of the formula?

• Nothing, there is no operation needed on both sides.

• You have to square root after adding.

• You have to add 90 to each side.

What is the order you do the Pythagorean Theorem in?

• PEMDAS

• You multiply the number by 2, divide the two answers together, square root only the C² and then you’ll have your answer.

• You can do any operation in an order and you’ll have the correct answer for an acute triangle.

• You multiply the the numbers in the place for A and B by their same number ex; 8² = 8*8 = 64, the you will add the two numbers (A and B) together ex; 64 + 25 = 89, lastly you will square root 89 AND the C² then you will have your answer that will equal to “C”
