UNIT 8 REVIEW

If a right triangle is formed when three squares are joined at their vertices, the area of

the largest square is the same as the combined area of the two smaller squares.

Which set of squares below support this statement?

Select TWO correct answers.

• 
• 

The Pythagorean Theorem ONLY works on which triangle?

• obtuse

• scalene

• isosceles

• right

What side(s) will always be the longest on a right triangle?

• The Hypotenuse

• Leg A

• Leg B

• The Right Angle

What is the relationship between the sides in the Pythagorean Theorem shown?

Hint: Think about when the hypotenuse is missing!

• a + b = c

• a² + b² = c²

• a² – b² = c²

• a – b = c

Do three squares with side lengths of 6, 12, and 13 form a right triangle?

• Yes
• No

• 9
• 40
• 41
