Before we proceed to our discussion for

today, let us have first a short game.
This game will be called “Arrange Me’’.

Mechanics:
I will show the jumbled letter one by one
and the students that got the correct word
will have a reward from me.
Are you now ready to play the game?

Alright, let us begin the game.

 Yes Ma’am!
1. 1. Hypotenuse
Y H T O P N E E S U
Very good correct. Hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle which is
Can anyone define what is hypotenuse? opposite to the right angle.

Amazing! Next number.  

2. 2. Pythagorean
T H E P Y A G O R A N

Very good.

3. 3. Theorem
T H E M O R E
Pythagorean theorem is a geometric theorem that the sum of
the squares on the legs of a right triangle is equal to
Alright, so anyone who knows a
the square on the hypotenuse.
Pythagorean theorem?

Yes ma’am.
Very good so did you remember the
formula of Pythagorean theorem? c 2=a2+ b2

4. 4. Legs
S L E G
Yes ma’am.
2 2 2
Very good so did you remember the c =a + b
formula of Pythagorean theorem?

Can you illustrate the hypotenuse and the

A C (hypotenuse)
leg A and B in a Right Triangle?
leg
That is great that you can still identify the
sides of a right triangles.
leg B
And last word is?

Amazing, so those who got a correct

answers congratulations enjoy your
rewards.

C. INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC

Since we are already done, our
games let us proceed to our lesson.

Is there anyone who have an idea of what Its all about Pythagorean theorem.
are we going to discuss today?

Yes, that’s right and we are going to use

Pythagorean theorem on solving problems.

D. ACTIVITY
The class will be divided into 6 groups.
Each group will be given a problem that
they need to analyze and solve using
Pythagorean theorem.

This activity is for 5 minutes only.

Group 1,3,5
Julie wanted to wash her building window
which is 12 feet off the ground. She has a
ladder that is 13 feet long. How far should
she place the base of the ladder away from
the building?

Group 2,4,6

Michael picks some mangoes on the tree

using bamboo stick, but the tree is 20
meters tall, and he is 4 meters away from
the tree. How long is the bamboo stick that
he used?
E. ANALYSIS
Group 1
The teacher will let the students present Using the Pythagorean theorem we solve the problem, and our
their outputs and facilitate on how they solution is this:
solve the problem. c 2=a2+ b2
2 2 2
13 =12 +b
169-144=b 2
25=b 2
√ 25=√ b2
5=b
What is the measure of your hypotenuse?
13 ft long and represent as C in our solution.
Alright, why do you need to get the square
root of 25? Because we need to cancel the square of b.
Very good! Group 1

Now proceed to the Group 6

We look first the given in the problem, then we use the formula
and substitute the given.
Given:
c=?
b=3m
a= 4m
Formula
c= √ a + b
2 2

Substitute
c= √ 42 +32
Amazing! Group 2 c= √25
C=5
Why did you use to square root on the
a 2+ b2 ,first before you substitute the Because we try to cancel first the square of c, for us not to do it
given? in the last step, and we found out that the result is just the same.

Great! Thinking group 2.

F. APPLICATION

Since you know now how to solve

problems using Pythagorean theorem, let
us have an exercise.
On the ½ sheet of paper the students will
answer the problem.

Airplanes use radar to measure

distances. The plane is at a height of 12
meters. The airport is 5 meters away. How
far does the plane need to travel before it
lands?
 12 m Given:
a= 12 m
b= 5 m
c=?
5m

c= √ a + b
2 2
When all are done ask one of the students
c= √12 +5
2 2
to show her/his answer on the board.
c= √169
C= 13

G. ABSTRACTION

Amazing class you are all doing a good

job.
So now let’s have a recap on what is a Pythagorean theorem is the sum of the squares on the legs of a
Pythagorean theorem. right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse.
2 2 2
c =a + b

Nice! How about analyzing how did you We just read and understand the problem so that we can
analyze the problem? identify the given and look for the missing side.

Great! Can you now say that the
Pythagorean theorem is important in our
daily life?
Yes, Ma’am because we can use Pythagorean theorem in:
 construction and architecture work
 to survey the steepness of the slopes of mountains or
hills.
 to calculate the length of staircase required to reach a
window
 to determine heights and measurements in the
construction sites.

H. EVALUATION

On the ½ sheet of paper they will

answer the solving problems.

1. A ladder is placed on the ground in such 1. given:

a way that it touches the top of a vertical a= 15m
wall if the high is 15 meters, and the ladder b=8m
is 8 meters away from the wall. How long c=?
is the ladder? c 2=a2+ b2
2 2 2
c =15 +8
2
c =289
√ C2 =√289
C=17

2. Ms. Green tells you that a right triangle

has a hypotenuse of 10 and a high of 8. She 2. Given:
asks you to find the other leg of the a= 8
triangle. b=
c=10
 c 2=a2+ b2
2 2 2
10 =8 + b
100−64=b2
√ 36= √b 2
6=b
