Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are Pythagorean triplets?

Show answer

(5, 12, 13), (8, 15, 17), (7, 24, 25)

For Pythagorean triplets, the square of the largest number equals the sum of squares of the other two. Check: 13² = 169 = 25 + 144 = 5² + 12² ✓, 17² = 289 = 64 + 225 = 8² + 15² ✓, 25² = 625 = 49 + 576 = 7² + 24² ✓, but 12² = 144 ≠ 36 + 64 = 6² + 8² ✗

2text answer

What is the length of each equal side in a 45-45-90 triangle if the hypotenuse is 6√2 cm?

3text answer

If the geometric mean of two segments is 12 and one segment is 9, what is the length of the other segment?

4multiple choice

Which formula generates Pythagorean triplets when a = 4 and b = 3?

Show answer

(a² + b², a² - b², 2ab) = (25, 7, 24)

Using the formula with a = 4, b = 3: a² + b² = 16 + 9 = 25, a² - b² = 16 - 9 = 7, 2ab = 2×4×3 = 24. So the triplet is (25, 7, 24). Verify: 25² = 625 = 49 + 576 = 7² + 24² ✓
