The Pythagorean Theorem was named after this famous mathematician from ancient Greece.
Who is Pythagoras?
The side opposite from a right angle of a triangle is also known as this.
What is the hypotenuse?
Triangles can be classified by sides using these three terms.
What are: equilateral, isosceles, and scalene?
What type of math is it in
It is in Geometry
This kind of trig function takes side ratios as input, and provides an angle measure.
What is inverse?
The name of a mathematical statement that requires proof.
What is a theorem?
In a right triangle whose legs measure 5cm and 12cm, the hypotenuse must be this many cm long.
What is 13cm?
The theorem known as the "Law of Sines" can be applied to this type of triangle.
What is all triangles?
What type of geometry is it in
Euclidean geometry
An angle with this many degrees has a sine value of 3/5
What is 37°?
This mnemonic is repeated by Geometry students around the globe as a means of remembering the trigonometric functions.
What is "SOH-CAH-TOA"?
In a2+b2=c2 what is a and b.
The sides other than the hypotenuse.
The Pythagorean theorem allows you to calculate these in a triangle.
What are the side lengths?
What shape in geometry does the theorem work with
Right triangle
An angle measuring this many degrees has a cosine value of 7/10.
What is 46°?
Who is Alex Trebek?
This (famous) equation is also known as the Pythagorean Theorem.
What is a2+b2=c2
If you knew the hypotenuse and 1 side of the triangle could you figure out what the third side is Y/N
Yes you could
What does the theorem show us
It shows us the relation between the sides.
Given right triangle ABC where C is the right angle. If sin A= 3/5, what function and letter would be equal?
cos B
Triangles can be classified by three categories using their angles. Name them
right, obtuse, acute
A right isosceles triangles has two acute angles both measuring this many degrees
What is 45°?
This is the maximum value of the tangent function.
What is ∞?
If you put random number in a and b and solve for c it will never make a right triangle T/F
False
If sin 30= x/2, solve for x
x=1
