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). Formula: a² + b² = c².

Front

How do you calculate the area of a square?

Back

The area of a square is calculated by squaring the length of one of its sides. Formula: Area = side².

Front

What is the relationship between the areas of squares formed on the sides of a right triangle?

Back

The sum of the areas of the two smaller squares is equal to the area of the largest square.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

Back

Use the distance formula: Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

Back

The area of a triangle is calculated using the formula: Area = 1/2 * base * height.

Front

What does it mean for two shapes to be congruent?

Back

Two shapes are congruent if they have the same size and shape, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is a right triangle?

Back

A right triangle is a triangle that has one angle measuring 90 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of a vertex in geometry?

Back

A vertex is a point where two or more lines or edges meet. In polygons, it is a corner point.

Front

How do you determine the height of a triangle?

Back

The height of a triangle is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex.

Front

What is the significance of the hypotenuse in a right triangle?

Back

The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle, opposite the right angle.
