Apply the Pythagorean Theorem (Unknown Side Length)
- Grade:
- 8
- Subject:
- Math
This geometry lesson teaches students how to apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine unknown side lengths in a right triangle. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the lengths of the sides of a triangle. This lesson also includes real-world word problems.
Solve Problems Using The Triangle Inequality Theorem
- Grade:
- High School
- Subject:
- Math
This math lesson teaches students how to use the Triangle Inequality theorem to determine the possible range of values for an unknown side of a triangle. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for standardized assessments. In this lesson, students will calculate the sum and difference of the two known sides of the triangle and recognize that the unknown side must have a value between the two. In addition to the lesson, there are two pages of independent practice and nine pages of periodic review with questions modeled after standardized assessments.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to Find an Unknown Length of a Side of a Right Triangle
- Grade:
- High School
- Subject:
- Math
This math lesson teaches students how to apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the unknown length of the side of a triangle. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for standardized assessments. In this lesson, students will identify the hypotenuse and two legs of a right triangle, then solve the Pythagorean Theorem for the missing value. In addition to the lesson, there are two pages of Independent Practice and six pages of Periodic Review with questions modeled after standardized assessments.
