Intro

Go outside, if possible, otherwise be creative at home.  You need to find at least three right-angled triangles. Take a picture of these these triangles and make sure that you have proof that you are the one who made the pictures.

Label the vertices of the triangles and write down the Pythagorean Theorem for each triangle. 

Specifics

- Go outside

- Find three right-angled triangles and make a picture. 

- Make sure that you have proof that you are the one who made the pictures. 

- When you want to go with a friend, please minimize the group size and you MUST choose DIFFERENT triangles. 

- Upload your pictures to a word document (or different)

- Label the vertices of the triangleAlso, label the right-angle 

- Write down the Pythagorean Theorem for each triangle. 

- Explain in a reflection how you analyzed the triangle and how you were able to write down the Pythagorean Theorem. 

Example of labeling the vertices of a triangle 

You can choose your own letters.
