If you’re in Mr felias’s class in 8th grade how do I do the Pythagorean Theorem project? I’m kinda slow and he didnt explain it well enough. If someone could help me that would be great.
The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides is equal to the square of the longest side. This can be written as an equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the two shorter sides and c is the longest side.
To complete the project, you will need to use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the missing side of a right triangle. You will need to identify the two shorter sides and then use the equation to solve for the longest side. Once you have solved for the longest side, you can then use the Pythagorean Theorem to check your answer.
If you are still having trouble understanding the project, you can ask your teacher for help or look up tutorials online. Good luck!
