3. Pythagorean Theorem
4. Pythagorean Theorem

1. Pythagorean theorem

2. Converse

3. Pythagorean theroem

4. Pythagorean theorem

Concept :

  • Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of the base and height is equal to the square of the hypotenus
  • Converse of Pythagorean theorem states that sum of squares of two sides are equal to the third side then it is a right angle triangle.

How to Solve the problem?

The problem can be solved by following steps.

1. The sides of the triangles given are 3 and 4

  • We need to find the third side that is hypotenus
  • We will use the Pythagorean theorem to find the third side

2. The three sides are given are 10m , 15m and 8m

  • We need to state that It is right angle triangle or not
  • We will use the converse of Pythagorean theorem
  • to justify this statement.

3. The side lengths of the squares given is 2cm

  • we need to find the length of the diagonal
  • We will use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal which will be the hypotenus of the triangle formed by diagonal in the square

4. A side of Right Triangle given is 15ft and The hypotenus given is 17ft

We need to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the other side
