Term 3 Week 6
Section outline

Context:

MHJC Learning Framework Step:
PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:
- We are PLANNING... to apply the Pythagoras' theorem so that we can solve geometry problems that involes the sides of right-angled triangles.
- We are PLANNING... to apply basic trigonometry concepts so that we can solve geometry problems that involes two sides and an angle of right-angled triangles.
Success Criteria: I can/have...
- identify and describe the long side of a right-angled triangle using the term hypothenuse
- recall the formula for Pythagoras' theorem, and apply it to find the value of one remain side of a given right-angled triangle
- work out square and square-root of a number
- give reasons for the relevance of Pythagoras' theorem in real-life situations
- use the basic trigonometry ratio to find the length of the missing side of a given right-angled triangle
- use the basic the basic sine, cosine, and tangent formulae to find the length of the missing side, or the angle of the missing angle, of a given right-angled triangle
