and the Converse of
the Pythagorean
Theorem
How can you apply the Pythagorean Theorem using real-world problems?
8.NS.1: Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; the rational numbers are those with decimal
expansions that terminate in 0s or eventually repeat. Know that other numbers are called irrational.
8.NS.2: Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them
approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions.
8.EE.2: Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x2=p and x3=p, where p is a
positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that
√2is irrational.
8.G.6: Explain a proof of the Pythagorean theorem and its converse.
8.G.7.: Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine unknown side lengths in right triangles in real –world and
mathematical problems in two and three dimensions.
8.G.8 Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to in the distance between two points in a coordinate system.

triangle measures 9in by
12in by 15in. the larger
triangle measures 9in by
40in by 4in. Are both of the
triangles right triangles?

Distance in the Coordinate Plane
Ex1.) Find the distance
between A(2,2) and B(3,1). Round to the nearest
tenth if necessary.
Ex2.) Graph and connect
the points F(2,-1), G(6,1)
and H(6,5), then find the
length of the hypotenuse.
