Question 1: What is the Pythagorean Theorem? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.

The Pythagorean theorem states the relationship among the three sides on a right triangle. The squared of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the other two sides squared.





Question 2: How do you find the surface area of a right rectangular prism? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.

A rectangular prisim is a 3-D rectangle with 6 sides. If all the sides in a rectangular prisim are equal then it is called a cube.

The following equation give you the surface area of any rectangular prisim:

l = length
w = width
h = hieght

SA = 2(hw) + 2(hw) + 2(hl)

The volume of a rectangular prisim is by:

V = lwh

below is a rectangular prisim
