Parts of a Right Triangle & Its Altitude

 Legs (Base & Height): The two sides forming the

right angle are the legs, often called the base
and height.

hypotenuse.
 Hypotenuse Segments: The altitude divides the
hypotenuse into two smaller segments (let's call
them 'x' and 'y').

H. Making Overall Generalization

generalizations
and abstractions
about the lesson A student raise his/her
1. What is the Right Triangle Similarity Theorem in
hand
your own words?
Right Triangle Similarity
Theorem states that the
two smaller right triangles
formed by the altitude in a
right triangle are similar to
the original triangle and to
each other.

The students will clap 5

Excellent! Give his/her 5 claps.
times.

A student raise his/her

hand

2. What is the altitude in a right triangle and what The altitude is a line from
does it do? the right-angle vertex to
the hypotenuse. It divides
the hypotenuse into two
segments.
Excellent! Give his/her 5 claps.
The students will clap 5
times.

A student raise his/her

hand

3. What is the Geometric Means Theorem, and what The Geometric Means
are the two rules in a right triangle? Theorem states that in a
right triangle, the altitude
is the geometric mean of
the two hypotenuse
segments, and each leg is
the geometric mean of the
hypotenuse and the
adjacent segment.

Two rules:

Altitude Rule: The altitude

is the geometric mean of
the two segments of the
hypotenuse.

Leg Rule: Each leg is the

geometric mean of the
 hypotenuse and the
segment of the hypotenuse
next to that leg.

Excellent! Give his/her 5 claps. The students will clap 5

times.

Do have any further questions and clarifications? None, Sir!
