True or False?
The Pythagorean theorem works for any triangle.
False
The Pythagorean theorem specifically applies to right triangles, not all triangles.
What is the picture below describing? (Since there's no image provided, I'll give the potential answers based on typical contexts related to the Pythagorean theorem.)
- A proof of the Pythagorean theorem
- a² + b² = c²
- A geometric sequence
- a + b = c
- A geometric alphabet
Select all that applies.
Correct Answers:
- A proof of the Pythagorean theorem
- a² + b² = c²
(The other options do not relate directly to the Pythagorean theorem.)
Fill in the Blank
The Pythagorean theorem involves making (Blank 1) [calculations] (example answer) from the (Blank 2) [sides] (example answer) of a (Blank 3) [triangle] (example answer).
The (Blank 4) [squares] (example answer) from the (Blank 5) [legs] (example answer) added together will equal the (Blank 6) [square] (example answer) from the (Blank 7) [hypotenuse] (example answer).
