Video 1: "Geometry Tips : What Is the Pythagorean Theorem? "
I. Before you watch the video answer the following questions. Read the title of the video

What do you think this video will be about? I think that the video will talk about how to compute how much measure the sides from a right triangle.

Mention five words you think you might listen to in the video. Right triangles, hypotenuse, sides, right angle, hicks.

II. Now click on the following link and watch the video. While and after watching, please answer the following questions: []

1. What is the pitagoream theorem? Pitagoream's theorem is the most popular formula to calculate lengths of right triangles

2. Why is it said to be exclusive? Because the pitagoream theorem is exclusive to compute sides only from a right triangle.

3. What is a hypothenuse? Hypothenuse is the side opposite the right angle.

4. What is the name of the other sides of a rectangle triangle? Lengths of the legs of the right triangle.

5. What steps he uses to solve the problem on the video? See what are the lengths of the sides of the right triangle given, see what is the unknown, use the formula of the pitagoream theorem and calculate for to get the result.
