The document explains the Pythagorean theorem and distance formula. The Pythagorean theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 and is used to find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle given the lengths of the other two sides. The distance formula finds the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) by taking the square root of (x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2. Examples are provided to demonstrate how to apply each formula.

2. Pythagorean Theorem explanation slide When is the Pythagorean theorem? Pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 =c2 What type of triangle do we use the theorem for? Any triangle the hypotenuse

3. Pythagorean Theorem example slide a2 + b2 =c2 122 + 6 2 = x 2 144+36=x2 180=x 6 13.4=x 12 x

4. Distance Formula explanation slide What is distance formula? Distance formula is when finding the distance of something(x1,y1)(x2,y2) what steps do you follow to use the distance formula? Label the steps Put them in the distance formula Do the math

5. Distance Formula example slide (-3,5) (4,-5) (x1,y1-x2,y2) -3-42 -5-52 -72 -102 49+100 =149 =13
