Unit 2, Day 2: Review Pythagorean theorem. Definitions of angles. triangle angle sum; triangle classifications, distance formula.

Pythagorean theorem: A theorem attributed to Pythagoras that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum f the squares of the other.

Triangle Angle Sum: The sum of the interior angles of any triangle is equal to 180 degrees. Triangle classifications: The basic elements of any triangle are its sides and angles. triangles are classified depending on relative sizes of their elements.

Triangle Classification: The basic elements of any triangle are its sides and angles. Triangles are classified depending on relative sizes of their elements.

Unit 2, Day 3: Objective: Simplify radicals; distance formula can be introduced


Distance Formula: The formula, which is used to find the distance between two points (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2) is called the distance formula.






or...

Quiz:
     1) What is the distance between the points A (4, 6) B (-2, -2)?
     2) Find the distance between the points. (2, 5) (1,3 ).
     3) Define Distance formula

Key
     1) you have to use the distance formula so, AB = square root of (-2, -4)^2 + (-2, -6)^2 = 10 units
     2) Square root of (2 - 1)^2 + (5 - 3)62 = square root of 1^2 + 2^2 = square root of 1 + 4 equals square root of 5
     3) The formula, which is used to find the distance between two points (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2) is called the distance formula.

Unit 2, Day 1: review of slopes of lines; slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines.


Defininition: The slope or gradient of a line describes its steepness, incline, or grade. Parallel lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other. Perpendicular if and only if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.
