BEFORE WE CAN FIND HIM..

  • I need to know what you know about triangles

HERE IS WHAT I THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW

  • Triangles have three sides
  • The degrees inside of a triangle sum to 180
  • Based on sides we have scalene, equilateral, and isosoceles triangles
  • Based on angles we have acute, right, and obtuse triangles
  • The longest side of the right triangle is called the "hypotenuse"

WELL LET ME TELL YOU WHO PAT IS!!!

The "Pythagorean Theorem"

Is used only for a right triangle with legs 🅰 and 🅱 and a hypotenuse ©

The "Theorem"states:
The square of the length of
the hypotenuse is equal to
the square of side a
plus the square of
side b.
