on using/applying Pythagorean Theorem.
|
|
|

|
|
6. Methods Used and Procedures-
|
A. Introduction-
BELLWORK:
1. review of square roots
2. review of properties of triangle
3. review vocabulary: isosceles, right triangle, square root, perimeter,
area of a triangle, area of square |
|
|
B. Development-
1.New vocabulary: legs, hypotenuse
2.Pythagorean Theorem: In a right triangle, the measure of the hypotenuse
is equal to th sum of the squares of the adjacent legs.
3. Powerpoint slides (attached) |
|
|
C. Practice-
1.Given two legs, find hypotenuse.
2.Given one leg and hypotenuse, find other leg.
3. Converse - Is it a right triangle?
4. Finding hypotenuse of right triangle drawn on coordinate plane.
5. Real-world problems |
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1. Pair activity (measuring around the room)
2. Sunshine State Standards Support Book pg. 61-63
|
|
|
E. Accommodations For Students-
1. Printed slides (notes)for select students
2. Kinesthetic activity
3. Cooperative learning
4. Whole group instruction |
|
|
F. Checking for understanding-
1. Observation during paired activity
2. Independent practice
3. ICL Quiz on topic |
|
|
G. Closure-
1. Recall of Pythagorean Theorem and converse
2. Discussion of where else we might use it |
|
|
7. Evaluation-
|
1. Homework will include short paragraph on written explanation
of the theorem.
