Given: ΔABC is a right triangle.
Prove: a2 + b2 = c2
Right triangle BCA with sides of length a, b, and c. Perpendicular CD forms right triangles BDC and CDA. CD measures h units, B
The following two-column proof with missing justifications proves the Pythagorean Theorem using similar triangles:
Statement Justification
Draw an altitude from point C to Line segment AB
Let segment BC = a
segment CA = b
segment AB = c
segment CD = h
segment DB = x
segment AD = y
y + x = c
c over a equals a over y and c over b equals b over x
a2 = cy; b2 = cx
a2 + b2 = cy + b2
a2 + b2 = cy + cx
a2 + b2 = c(y + x)
a2 + b2 = c(c)
a2 + b2 = c2
Which is not a justification for the proof? (5 points)

Juliana says that she can use the patterns of equivalent ratios in the multiplication table below to write an infinite number of ratios that are equivalent to 6: 10. which statement explains whether juliana is correct? she is correct because she can multiply 6 and 10 by any number to form an equivalent ratio. she is correct because 6: 10 can be written as 1: 2 and there are an infinite number of ratios for 1: 2. she is not correct because the multiplication table does not include multiples of 10. she is not correct because 6: 10 is equivalent to 3: 5 and there are only 9 ratios in the multiplication table that are equivalent to 3: 5.
