9 Mathematics Success Grade 8 T829 Step 4: Explain to students that they will not have room to draw all the squares next to each side of the triangle, but that they can still use the same steps as in the first example to figure out the area of each square. Step : Partner, what would the area of a square be that had DE as one of its sides? Explain your thinking. [The area would be 2 square units. I would multiply s s to determine the area. ( = 2)] Record. Partner, what would the area of a square be that had DF as one of its sides? Explain your thinking. [The area would be 144 square units. I would multiply s s to determine the area.

Record. Partner, explain what this means in relationship to the sides of the triangles. (The measure of DE squared ( 2 ) plus the measure of DF squared (12 2 ) is equal to EF squared (13 2 ) or = 13 2 ; = 169.) Record. Step 6: Have students look at the coordinate grid on S408 or T836. Partner, how did we get the numbers of 9, 16, 2 in Question 9 on S409, and 2, 144, 169 in Question 9 on S4. (They were the areas of the squares we made from the sides of the triangles.) Record. Partner, explain how to find the area of a square. (Multiply a side by a side, or s 2 ) Record. Partner, if the sides are identified as a and b, and the hypotenuse, which is always the longest side of the triangle and across from the right angle, was side c, what equation could you write to relate the areas of the three squares? [a 2 + b 2 = c 2 (or the area of the square with side a, plus the area of the square with side b, equals the area of the square with side c.] Record.

MODELING Finding the Hypotenuse on the oordinate Plane Using Edge Lengths or oordinates Step 1: Have students look at Problem 1 on page S Step 2: Explain to students that they will be using the triangle and substituting the horizontal and vertical lengths of the triangle from the coordinate grid into the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the hypotenuse.

Partner, what is the length of Side c? () Step 3: Have students turn to page S412 and look at Problem 4. Partner, how is Problem 4 different from Problems 1 3 on page S411? (Problems 1 3 have a triangle on a coordinate grid and Problems 4 6 give the coordinates of the triangle, but do not show a picture.) Partner, how can we determine the side lengths of the triangle that is created given the coordinates? (We can find the vertical distance by finding the difference between the y-coordinates of two points and we can find the horizontal distance by finding the difference between the x-coordinates.) Step 4: Partner, what is the distance from Point to Point? (3 units) Record. Partner, what is the measure of? (3 units) Record. Partner, what is the distance from Point to Point? ( units) Record.
