In order to learn about the Pythagorean Theorem, young mathematicians investigate relations and patterns between different sides of a right triangle to look for possible relations among the squared sides. Once they have established the...

In this Pythagoras' Theorem worksheet, students solve problems having to do with square roots and numbers to a certain power. Students match up the answers for 30 problems.

Students explore Pythagoras' Theorem. For this geometry lesson, students complete 4 pages of equations using Pythagoras's Theorem. Students complete 14 problems.

In this Pythagorean theorem worksheet, students use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side of the triangles. Students complete 8 problems total.

In this Pythagorean Theorem instructional activity, students find the lengths of sides for 8 triangles. A website reference for additional activities is given.

In this Pythagorean Theorem worksheet, students find the length of sides of a set of 8 triangles. A website reference for additional activities is given.

In this Pythagorean Theorem activity, students find length of sides for 8 triangles.  A website reference is included for additional resources.

In this Pythagorean Theorem worksheet, students find lengths of sides of 8 triangles. A website reference for additional resources is given.

Fourth and fifth graders study the Pythagorean Theorem and apply it to find the missing side of a right triangle.

Pupils are responsible for creating a border around a triangular garden spot, of which they know the measurements for two sides. They use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the third side and complete the garden.

Students independently investigate the Pythagorean Theorem. They are given a set of triangles that involve whole number Pythagorean Triples. The main focus of the lesson is exploration rather than discovering the Pythagorean Theorem.

Using a twelve foot knotted rope, students form a 3-4-5 right triangle. Following a discussion of observations about the lengths of the sides of the triangle, students use grid paper, scissors and a centimeter ruler to draw and measure...

Learners classify triangles and make connections regarding angle measurements and attributes of acute, right, and obtuse triangles. They listen to teacher define and explain triangles. Everyone imagines a place where a broken wing for a...

Fifth graders explore the use of trigonometry to find unknown sides and angles in right-angled triangles, taking the concepts that were developed in the previous unit and looking at different ways of practicing the new skills. Students...

Fifth graders use tan to solve problems involving right-angled triangles. They solve equations of the form tan(8) =a, for a between 180 degrees and 360 degrees. They state the value of tan (8) in special cases.

Fifth graders describe and demonstrate how trigonometry can be used to find the height of a tall building or tree. They describe and demonstrate how trigonometry can be used to find the height of a high hill, or other high object where...

Explains the Pythagorean Theorem formula, the Pythagorean Triples, and why the theorem is important.
