Do now! 1. Cut out the pieces from each of the smaller squares and rearrange them to form a square on the "long side". 2. What generalization can you deduce about the relationship between the area of the squares on each of the sides of a right triangle. 3. With a partner, look at each other's generalizations. Pythagoras' Theorem In a right-angled triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side which is always opposite to the right angle. The legs are the sides that form the right angle. Right- angled triangle Let's discover the Pythagoras' Theorem! What motivated Pythagoras to develop this theorem? Why is the Pythagorean theorem so important?
