Pythagorean Theorem and Volume

What is the Pythagorean Theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b). It can be expressed as: a² + b² = c².

How do you determine if a triangle is a right triangle?

Back

A triangle is a right triangle if it satisfies the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c², where c is the longest side.

What is the formula for the volume of a cylinder?

Back

The volume (V) of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula: V = πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

If a triangle has sides of lengths 9 cm, 40 cm, and 41 cm, is it a right triangle?

Back

Yes, it is a right triangle because 9² + 40² = 41² (81 + 1600 = 1681).

What is the length of the diagonal of a rectangle with width 90 m and length 120 m?

Back

The diagonal can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem: d = √(90² + 120²) = √(8100 + 14400) = √22500 = 150 m.

What is the height of a cylinder with a volume of 502.4 cm³ and a radius of 4 cm?

Back

Using the volume formula V = πr²h, we can rearrange to find h: h = V / (πr²). Thus, h = 502.4 / (π * 4²) = 10 cm.

What is the relationship between the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle?

Back

In a 30-60-90 triangle, the lengths of the sides are in the ratio 1:√3:2, where the shortest side is opposite the 30° angle.

What is the relationship between the sides of a 45-45-90 triangle?

Back

In a 45-45-90 triangle, the lengths of the legs are equal, and the hypotenuse is √2 times the length of each leg.
