Understanding Pythagoras Theorem and Its Applications

The video tutorial explains Pythagoras Theorem and its application in finding the distance between two points using their coordinates. It demonstrates the process with an example, showing how to calculate the distance using the theorem. The video also discusses the practical use of this method in computer games, where the distance between objects is calculated using coordinates. The tutorial concludes with a game scenario to illustrate the concept further.

What is the basic formula of Pythagoras Theorem?

• a^2 = b^2 + c^2

• a^2 + b^2 = 2c^2

• a^2 - b^2 = c^2

• a^2 + b^2 = c^2

What is one practical use of Pythagoras Theorem?

• To determine the perimeter of a rectangle

• To calculate the area of a circle

• To find the distance between two points

• To measure the volume of a cube

In the example, what are the coordinates of point A?

• (9, 5)

• (5, 2)

• (2, 5)

• (5, 9)

How do you find the horizontal distance between two points?

• Add the y-coordinates

• Subtract the x-coordinates

• Add the x-coordinates

• Subtract the y-coordinates

What is the length of the line segment AB in the example?

• 3

• 4

• 5

• 6

What is the distance formula derived from Pythagoras Theorem?

• d = √((x2 + x1)^2 + (y2 + y1)^2)

• d = (x2 + x1)^2 + (y2 + y1)^2

• d = (x2 - x1) + (y2 - y1)

• d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

Why do computers prefer using numbers over pictures?

• Because pictures are easier to store

• Because numbers are more colorful

• Because pictures are more accurate

• Because they can process numbers faster

In the game scenario, what happens if the distance between the boy and the zombie is less than 20 points?

• The zombie disappears

• The game restarts

• The boy does math exercises

• The boy wins the game

What is the condition for the boy to win the game?

• The distance is exactly 100 points

• The distance is more than 100 points

• The distance is exactly 50 points

• The distance is less than 20 points

What are the coordinates of the zombie in the game scenario?

• (37, 31)

• (28, 19)

• (19, 28)

• (31, 37)
