Eric.P's scribepost for January 6, 2010

Question 8.


a² + b² = c²
25² + 30² = c²
(25x25)+(30x30) = c²
625 + 900 = c²
1525 = c²
√1525 = √c²
39.05 = c²










Thank Christine for the pictures.

[8886665.jpg]

A^2+B^2=C^2
2^2+4^4=C^2
(2x2)+(4x4)=C2
4+16=C2
20=C2
20^(1/2)=C
Therefore the length of the line segment AB is approximately 4 cm.

In order to find the base of this triangle, add up both high numbers, then take away lowest one, for my answer, I got 12mm.

10+10-8=12

The length of the base of the large triangle is 12mm.

Razel's Scribepost for January 5, 2010

Answer:
First you have to find the side length of the square..( 30.23). So the hypotenuse is 30.23 and the one leg is 17 cm, now I have to find the other side.

c²-a²= b²
30.23² - 17² = b²
(30.23x30.23)-(17x17)= b²
913.85-289=b²
624.85=b²

624.85=b²
√624.85=√b²
24.99cm= b

P= a+b+c
=17+24.99+30.23
= 72.22 cm
The perimeter of the triangle is 72.2

Raquel's Scribepost for Janurary 4 2010

Text Book Questions
Pg.104 Questions 3-4

a)12cm-144cm
16cm=256cm
144 cm² + 256 cm² = 400 cm²
Square of 400 cm² = 20 cm




b)16 m = 256 m²

30 m = 900 m²

256 m² + 900 m² = 1156 m²
Square of 1156 m² = 34 m



a)7 cm = 49 cm²
6 cm = 36 cm²
49 cm² + 36 cm² = 85 cm²
Square of 85 cm² = 9.2 cm

b)
11 cm = 121 cm²
8 cm = 64 cm²
121 cm² + 64 cm² = 185 cm²
Square of 185 cm² = 13.6 cm

I know it's late but, I still did it. Anyways, COMMENT. (:

Jemineth's Phytagoras

Pythagoras: #7 finding the value of a leg
(p.s sorry can't upload the pictures to show the question)
Part A : i=9mm g=5mm h=?
csquared-b/asquared = a/b squared
isquared - gsquared = hsquared
9squared - 5aquared = hsquared
(9 x 9 ) - (5 x 5 ) = h squared
81 - 25 = 56 squared
hsquared = 56
square root = 9.48
This shows that the particular triangle isn't a right triangle because the value of leg h is greater than the hypotenuse which supposedly is the longest side.
Part B : r=15mm q=11mm s= ?
csquared-b/asquared = a/b squared
rsquared-qsquared = ssquared
15mmsquared-11mmsquared = ssquared
(15x15)-(11x11) = ssquared
225 - 121 = 104 squared
ssquared = 104
squareroot = 10.1
Again this shows that the particular triangle isn't a right triangle because the value of leg h is greater than the hypotenuse which supposedly is the longest side.

6. Determine the length of the leg for each right triangle.

a) a= 7cm b=? c=25cm

c (2) - a (2) = b (2)
25 (2)- 7(2)= b (2)
(25x25) - (7x7) = b (2)
625- 49= b (2)
576= b (2)
(square root) 576= (square root) b (2)
24= b

b) r= 10cm s= ? t= 26cm

t (2) - s (2) = r (2)
26 (2) - 24 (2) =r (2)
(26x26) - (24x24) = r (2)
676- 576= r (2)
100= r (2)
(suare root) 100 = (square root) r (2)
10= r

sorry i cant upload the pic.

Alex's Question #13



The flower bed is not a right triangle, because the Pythagorean relationship says that a2+b2=c2 but 4800 cm2 + 4800 cm2 = 9600 cm2 not 9800 cm2.

Jerick873 Triangles Blog Post

This is my scribe for December 14th,2009
I had to do question #14

The question gave me 5 triangles triangle A, B, C, D, E and it gave there side lengths all i had to do is show if it is a right triangle.

Triangle (A) the side lengths are 9,12,15.
answer: 9 squared = 81, 12 squared=144 and 81+144 equals 15 squared which is 244 so it is a right triangle.

Triangle (B) the side lengths are 7,8,11.
answer: 7 squared = 49, 8 squared=64 and 49+64 does not equal 11 squared which is 121 so it not a right triangle.

Triangle (C) the side lengths are 7,24,25.
answer: 7 squared = 49, 24 squared=576 and 49+576 equals 25 squared which is 625 so it is a right triangle.

Triangle (D) the side lengths are 16,30,34.
answer: 16 squared = 256, 30 squared=900 and 256+900 does equal 34 squared which is 1156 so it is a right triangle.

Triangle (E) the side lengths are 10,11,14.
answer: 10 squared = 100, 11 squared=121 and 100+121 does not equal 14 squared which is 196 so it is not a right triangle.

Thanks For Reading!

Raquel's cool question #9


a)4x4=16
3x3=9
2x2=4

b) No, because the areas of the legs don't equal the area of the hypotenuse. ( 9+4=12 not 16. )


DON'T FORGET TO COMMENT, AND CAMILLE YOU TOOK MY QUESTION. (:
