Question 1: What is the Pythagorean Theorem? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.
The theory of Pythagorean is the calculation of how to figure out a objects side. The theory is that the square of the lengths of the sides of a right triangle are equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.
The formuala is: a²+b²=c²

(Two examples included in slide show)

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

Question 4: What is a polygon and how do we classify one?
A polygon is a closed plane figure bounded by straight line segments. The points at
which they intersect are called vertices. The line segments are called the sides of the polygon.
A polygon with n sides is called n-gon.

The types of polygons :
Regular polygon - all the sides and all the angles of a polygon are equal the polygon.



Irregular polygon - Irregular polygons have sides of different lengths and angles of different
measure.

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

The theorem states that c2=a2+b2, C is the side that is opposite the right angle which is called the hypotenuse. A and B are the sides that are adjacent to the right angle. The theorem simply states: the sum of the area of two small squares equals the area of the large one. The Pythagorean Theorem was made up by a greek mathemation named Pythagoras.

Redstar's Measurement growing post

Question 1: What is the Pythagorean Theorem? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.
The Pythagorean Theorem is that you could find the hypothenus (c) on a right angle triangle by taking the height of the triangle (a) squared and add the base (b) squared. Take the sum and find the square root of it and that is how you find the hypothenus. A2+B2=C2




















Question 2: How do you find the surface area of a right rectangular prism? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples
To find the surface area (SA) of a right rectangular prism you take times length (L) + hight (h) and multiply by 2 then you add L + width (w) multiplied by 2 then add width + length multiplied by 2.

2(L+W)+2(H+L)+2(H+W)

ex: Length = 10 Width = 15 Hight= 20

2(10+15)+2(15+20)+2(10+20)
70+70+60=SA
200=SA



Question 3: How do you find the surface area of a right cylinder? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples. SA= 2 pi R2 + 2pi Rh

To find the surface area of a cylindar you would have to imagin the cylindar unravaled. you would have to find the surface area of first the circles and then the rectangle.
TO find the circles' you take pi multiplied by the radius squared then multi;ply it by 2
Then you add the surface area of the rectangle. pi times the radius and the hight of the cylindar then multiply that by 2.
EX. Hight= 5cm
radius=2
3.14(pi)x 4= 12.56x2=25.12 +
3.14x2x5x2=62.8
add together and you get 87.92

(If you have a diameter you just divide it by 2 then you get your radius)






Question 4: What is a polygon and how do we classify one?












A polygon is a shape with many closed line segments in a complete circuit.


There are 4 types of polygons: regular, equiangular, irregular and equilateral .





Regular: all lines are equal and all sides are the same length. A regular polygon is also both a equiangular and a equilateral polygon.


Irregular: A polygon where the angles and sides are unequal.





Equiangular: All the angles in the polygon are equal.





Equilateral: All the sides in the polygon are equal.

Question 1: What is the Pythagorean Theorem? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.
The Pythagorean Theorem is a formula discovered by Pythagoras to find out what the length of the third side of a right triangle is when the two other sides of the right triangle are given.
The formula is a²+b²=c².

If the right triangle is missing a leg (hypotenuse), this is how you solve it using the formula above:
1) 35²+12²=c²
1225+144=c²
1369=c²
37in squared=c



Here is an example of a right trianle that is missing one of it's legs(a or b):
2) 72²+b²=97²
5184+b²=9409
b²=9409-5184
b²=4225
b=65cm 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 right rectangular prism is a 3D rectangle that all of the sides have a right angle.
You can find the surface area of a right rectanglar prism by using the formula:

SA=2(lenght x width)+2(length x height)+2(width x height)



This is a rectangular prism (Top)
This is the net of a rectangular prism (Bottom)



To find the surface area of a rectangular prism just plug in the numbers in the formula. For example:
lenght=23m width=13m height=12m
Now, plug in the numbers in the formula below:

SA=2(lw)+2(lh)+2(wh)
SA=2(23*13)+2(23*12)+2(13*12)
SA=2(299)+2(276)+2(156)
SA=598+552+312
SA=1462m squared





Here is a picture of a rectangular prism, let's solve for its surface area with the formula SA=2(lw)+2(lh)+2(wh):
SA=2(10*4)+2(10*5)+2(4*5)
SA=2(40)+2(50)+2(20)
SA=80+100+40
SA=220cm squared

Here is an example of a rectagular prism that we use in our everyday lives:


Question 3: How do you find the surface area of a right cylinder? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.
A right cylinder is alot like a right rectangular prism, if you cut it open, it has right angles, and is shaped like a rectangle with two circles on it.
Here is a cylinder cut open flat (Bottom)


Here is a picture of a cylinder not cut open



To find the Surface Area of a cylinder, use the formula SA=2*pi*r squared+2*pi*r*h
pi=3.14 r=radius r squared=radius*radius h=height

For example, say if the height was 15cm, the radius was 7cm, and the diameter was 14cm, how would you solve for the surface area?

SA=2(3.14)(7)squared+2(3.14)(7)(15)
SA=6.28(49)+6.28(105)
SA=307.72+659.4
SA=967.12cm squared


Here is an example of a cylinder, a can of coke (bottom)



Here is another thing shaped like a cylinder, a tube of glue (gule stick) (top)
Question 4: What is a polygon and how do we classify one?
A polygon is any shape as long as it is a closed figure. If a shape is not closed, then it is not considered a polygon.
A regular polygon is a simple easy polygon that does not intersect itself anywhere. And it can be a equiangular which means that all the angles are equal.
Another thing that a regular polygon can be is an equilateral which means that all the sides are the same length.
Here are different types of polygons:

Question 1: What is the Pythagorean Theorem? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples. (10 Marks)

The Pythagorean theorem is a way to determine how to calculate the lengths of all the sides on a right triangle.

To determine the Hypotenuse, one must square the Height and the Base and add together to determine the squared Hypotenuse. Then one must calculate the square-root of the squared Hypotenuse to determine the Hypotenuse.

To determine the Height, one must square the Base and the Hypotenuse. Then one must subtract the Base from the Hypotenuse, then calculate the square-root of the difference to determine the Height.

To determine the Base, one must square the Height and the Hypotenuse. Then one must subtract the Height from the Hypotenuse, then calculate the square-root the of the difference to determine the Base.


Question 2: How do you find the surface area of a right rectangular prism? You
should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.(10 Marks)

The surface area of a rectangular prism is the combined total of all the sides on the prism

The formula to calculate this is: 2(lh)+2(lw)+2(hw)=sa

Say for example we have a prism with these dimensions: l=4 w=5 h=6.
to determine the surface area of this we would use the formula above. 2(4x6)+2(4x5)+2(5x6)=146
The surface area is 146.



Question 3: How do you find the surface area of a right cylinder? You should use
words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples. (10 Marks)

To determine the surface area of a right cylinder one must first determine the circumference of the end circles. To do this one must multiply the radius (or the diameter divided by two)by 6.28. Once this has been achieved one must then multiply the circumference by the height. Next add one of the end circles area multiplied by 2. To determine the are of the circle one must square the radius (or the diameter divided by 2) multiplied by pi. Now add this to the circumference multiplied by the height.






Question 4: What is a polygon and how do we classify one? (10 Marks

A polygon can be classified as any enclosed space। A normal polygon is a polygon where all the sides are the same length and have the same angles.
These are some regular polygons.
:

These are irregular polygons.

Question 1: What is the Pythagorean Theorem? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples. (10 Marks)


The pythagorean theorem is the theory of Pythagoras which states the ability to calculate the objects sides'. Pythagoras stated that the hypoteneuse would be able to be calculated if the two other sides of the right triangle are available. His formula was a²+b²=c². To check if the hypoteneuse length is correct the sum of a and b should equal c. The hypoteneuse will usually be labeled c. C is the side opposite to the two other sides.













Question 2: How do you find the surface area of a right rectangular prism? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.(10 Marks)

A rectangular prism is a solid object where all sides are rectangles. A rectangular prism always has three dimensions. That is why it is called a three dimensional object (3-D). A rectangular prism always has six sides. It is measured with height, depth, and width. Some objects that are rectangular prisms are shoe boxes, a birthday cake, a kleenex box, etc.







Question 3: How do you find the surface area of a right cylinder? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples. (10 Marks)

A rectangular cylinder is a solid rounded figure with two circles on the top and the bottom. A rectangular cylinder is a three dimensional object (3-D). An example of a cylinder is a can, ice cream pail, an unsharpened pencil, etc.

Question 4: What is a polygon and how do we classify one? (10 Marks)

A polygon is a closed figure that is made by joining line segments together. A ploygon usually has three or more sides. All polygons have straight sides. There are two types of polygons; an irregular and regular polygon. A regular polygon is a polygon that's sides are all the same length and who's angles are all the same. An irregular polygon is a polygon that does not follow the regular polygon rules.
