Melissa's Pythagoras Growing Post

PART 1



A Pythagoren Triple is a right triangle that uses a set of numbers(1,2,3....etc). The numbers should not be a decimal. This set of numbers can also satisfy as a2+b2=c2.
For example:




-Multiply 3 by 3 it's equal to 9.



- Multiply 4 by 4 equal to 16.



-Add 16 by 9, equals to 25.



- The legs of the triangle can be labelled a and b.



- It doesn't matter which leg is labelled a or b.



- But the hypotenuse is always labelled c.



This is what Pythagorean Triple looks like.

Le frog stands 1.5 m from a wall where a fly sits 2m high. If Le frog's tongue leaves his mouth 70 cm from the ground, how far does his tongue have to strech to trap and eat the fly


Part 4


There is one wood. The length of the wood is 6 cm. Then the width is 4 cm. They have to half it into 2 woods. So they cut it diagonally. To make it parfectly cut they have to find what's the size of it's cutting part.
