The document discusses the Pythagorean theorem and distance formula. The Pythagorean theorem states that for any right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. It provides an example of using the theorem to solve for the length of the hypotenuse. The distance formula finds the distance between two points and involves subtracting the x-coordinates and y-coordinates, squaring the differences, adding them together, and taking the square root of the sum. It provides an example calculation using the distance formula.

2. Pythagorean Theorem explanation slide What is the Pythagorean theorem? Pythagorean theorem is a 2 +b 2 =c 2 The type of triangle do we have to use for the Theorem ? Any triangle hypotenuse

3. Pythagorean Theorem example slide a 2 + b 2 = c 2 6 2 + 14 2 =x 2 36+196=232 x 2 = 15.231 14 6 X

4. Distance Formula explanation slide What is the distance formula? Distance formula is finding the distance of something. (X1,Y1) (X2,Y2) What step do you follow when doing this? (Label the steps) (use the distance formula) (Do the math)

5. Distance Formula example slide D (10-,5) + (8,-11) = (10-8) (5-11) (2) 2 + (-6) 2 x 2 = 40 square root of 40 is 6.324 (10,-5)
