A Fibonacci Primer

Pupils investigate and solve Pythagorean triples. In this geometry lesson, students find the missing sides and angles of a right triangle. They graph right triangles and move the sides around to create different angles.

Students investigate the Pythagorean triples. For this geometry lesson, students solve for different parts of a right triangle. They identify the missing side or angle using the pythagorean theorem.

Add up areas of squares to discover the pythagorean relationship. Small groups create right triangles with squares along each side. They calculate the areas of each square and notice the relationship. Groups construct other types of...

Eighth graders use formulas to solve Pythagorean Theorem problems. They explore the hypotenuse, adjacent angles and legs of a triangle. Given any two integers in a problem, 8th graders identify and complete Pythagorean triples.
