4.14 TRIANGLES Triangles are three-sided shapes that lie in one plane. Triangles are a type of polygons. The sum of all the angles in any triangle is 180º. Triangles can be classified according to the size of its angles. Some examples are : Acute Triangles An acute triangle is a triangle whose angles are all acute (i.e. less than 90°). In the acute triangle shown below‚ a‚ b and c are all acute angles. Sample Problem 1: A triangle has angles 46º‚ 63º and 71º. What type of triangle is this? Answer:

advanced mathematics‚ such as Fermat’s Last Theorem and the theory of Hilbert space. The Pythagorean Theorem asserts that for a right triangle‚ the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. There are many ways to prove the Pythagorean Theorem. A particularly simple one is the scaling relationship for areas of similar figures. Did Pythagoras derive the Pythagorean Theorem or did he piece it together by studying ancient cultures; Egypt‚ Mesopotamia‚ India

Quadratic Equations Equations Quadratic MODULE - I Algebra 2 Notes QUADRATIC EQUATIONS Recall that an algebraic equation of the second degree is written in general form as ax 2 + bx + c = 0‚ a ≠ 0 It is called a quadratic equation in x. The coefficient ‘a’ is the first or leading coefficient‚ ‘b’ is the second or middle coefficient and ‘c’ is the constant term (or third coefficient). For example‚ 7x² + 2x + 5 = 0‚ 5 1 x² + x + 1 = 0‚ 2 2 1 = 0‚ 2 x² + 7x = 0‚ are all

least five more Pythagorean Triples using one of the many formulas available online for doing this. 2. After building your triples‚ verify each of them in the Pythagorean Theorem equation. Exercise #4: The numbers 3‚ 4‚ and 5 are called Pythagorean triples since 32+42=52. The numbers 5‚ 12‚ and 13 are also Pythagorean triples since 52+122=132. Can you find any other Pythagorean triples? Actually‚ there is a set of formulas that will generate an infinite number of Pythagorean triples. Research

The Pythagorean Scale a mathematical method that is used to create all the notes of the musical scale from the harmonic series; this scale is called the Pythagorean Scale. The naturally happening harmonics are whole number multiples. To get the other notes of the scale‚ we must use fractions. The harmonic series gives us the ability to create periods of time of perfect 5ths‚ the ratio of 3/2f‚ "f" being the starting frequency. By using these 5ths‚ we can create the pythagorean scale. We can
