  • Pythagorean Theorem
    ::毕达哥里安神论

    The two shorter sides of a right triangle (the sides that form the right angle) are the legs and the longer side (the side opposite the right angle) is the hypotenuse . For the Pythagorean Theorem , the legs are “ a ” and “ b ” and the hypotenuse is “ c ”.
    ::右三角的两边(右角的两边)是双腿,右角对面的长边(右角对面的侧)是下限。 对俾达哥里安神话来说,双腿是“a”和“b”的,下限是“c”。

    : Given a right triangle with legs of lengths a and b and a hypotenuse of length c , a 2 + b 2 = c 2 .
    :::给定右三角形,长度为a和b,长度为c,a2+b2=c2。

    The is also true. It allows you to prove that a triangle is a right triangle even if you do not know its angle measures.
    ::事实也是如此。 它允许您证明一个三角是一个右三角, 即使您不知道它的角度量 。

    Pythagorean Theorem Converse: If the square of the longest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.
    ::Pytagoren Theorem 反面:如果三角形最长的一面的正方形等于其他两面的正方形之和,则三角形是一个右三角形。

    If a 2 + b 2 = c 2 , then A B C is a right triangle.
    ::如果 a2+b2=c2, 则 ABC 是一个右三角形。

    Pythagorean Triples
    ::毕达哥里亚三连

    A combination of three numbers that makes the Pythagorean Theorem true is called a Pythagorean triple . Each set of numbers below is a Pythagorean triple.
    ::三个数字的组合使得毕达哥里安神话成为事实,称为毕达哥里安三联。下面的每组数字都是毕达哥里安三联。

    3 , 4 , 5 5 , 12 , 13 7 , 24 , 25 8 , 15 , 17 9 , 12 , 15 10 , 24 , 26

    Any multiple of a Pythagorean triple is also considered a Pythagorean triple. Multiplying 3, 4, 5 by 2 gives 6, 8, 10, which is another triple. To see if a set of numbers makes a Pythagorean triple, plug them into the Pythagorean Theorem.
    ::任何比达哥林三联体也被视为比达哥林三联体。乘以3, 4, 5乘以2等于6, 8, 10, 这是另外的三倍。 看看一组数字是否构成比达哥林三联体, 将其插入毕达哥林神话中。

    What if you were told that a triangle had side lengths of 5, 12, and 13? How could you determine if the triangle were a right one?
    ::如果有人告诉你三角形的侧长为5、12和13,你如何确定三角形是否正确?

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    What is the diagonal of a rectangle with sides 10 and 16?
    ::与第10和16边的矩形对角是什么?

    For any square and rectangle, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of a diagonal. Plug in the sides to find d .
    ::对于任何方形和矩形, 您可以使用 Pythagorean Theorem 来找到对角线的长度。 插在两侧以找到 d 。

    10 2 + 16 2 = d 2 100 + 256 = d 2 356 = d 2 d = 356 = 2 89 18.87


    ::102+162=d2100+256=d2356=d2d356=28918.87

    Example 2
    ::例2

    Do 6, 7, and 8 make the sides of a right triangle?
    ::6、7和8是右三角的两边吗?

    Plug the three numbers into the Pythagorean Theorem. Remember that the largest length will always be the hypotenuse, c . If 6 2 + 7 2 = 8 2 , then they are the sides of a right triangle.
    ::将三个数字插进 Pytagorean Theorem 中。 记住最大长度总是下限, c。 如果 62+72=82, 那么它们是右三角形的侧面 。

    6 2 + 7 2 = 36 + 49 = 85 8 2 = 64 85 64 ,   so the lengths are not the sides of a right triangle.


    ::62+72=36+49=8582=648564,所以长度不是右三角形的边。

    Example 3
    ::例3

    Find the length of the hypotenuse.
    ::查找下限长度 。

    Use the Pythagorean Theorem. Set a = 8 and b = 15 . Solve for c .
    ::使用 Pytagorean 定理。 设置 a=8 和 b=15。 解决 c 。

    8 2 + 15 2 = c 2 64 + 225 = c 2 289 = c 2 T a k e   t h e   s q u a r e   r o o t   o f   b o t h   s i d e s . 17 = c


    ::82+152=c264+225=c2289=c2 取两侧的平方根。

    Example 4
    ::例4

    Is 20, 21, 29 a Pythagorean triple?
    ::20 21 29是毕达哥伦三联赛吗?

    If 20 2 + 21 2 = 29 2 , then the set is a Pythagorean triple.
    ::如果202+212=292,那么这套是毕达哥林三联赛。

    20 2 + 21 2 = 400 + 441 = 841 29 2 = 841

    Therefore, 20, 21, and 29 is a Pythagorean triple.
    ::因此,20、21和29是毕达哥里三联赛

    Example 5
    ::例5

    Determine if the triangles below are right triangles.
    ::确定下方三角是否为右三角。

    Check to see if the three lengths satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem. Let the longest side represent c .
    ::检查三个长度是否满足 Pytagorena 理论。 让最长的侧面代表 。


    1. a 2 + b 2 = c 2 8 2 + 16 2 ? = ( 8 5 ) 2 64 + 256 ? = 64 5 320 = 320 Yes

      ::a2+b2=c282+162?=(85)264+256?=645320=320

    a 2 + b 2 = c 2 22 2 + 24 2 ? = 26 2 484 + 576 ? = 676 1060 676 No


    ::a2+b2=c2222+242?=262484+576?=6761060=676
