Students charged ahead today and uncovered this unique relationship among the sides of a right triangle by constructing tables of data and identifying patterns of change. Additionally, students wrote the symbolic representation of the theorem and applied it to a handful of problems.

Sheet titled "More Pythagorean Challenges"
Students were asked to also copy down two additional questions, 9 and 10 along with a sketch of two line segments.
The two line segments have endpoints: one at (3, 6) and (6, 8) the other at (4, 3) and (8, 5).
Question #9: Find the slope of the two line segments. Show/explain your work.
Question #10: Are the two lines parallel? How does your answer to question 9 help you respond to this question?
FCAs:
2 points: all problems attempted and reflective of exemplary effort
2 points: solutions clearly recorded on both grid and lined paper
