    Question 12:

    A)We estimate the side length to be 3.3 because 11 is in between the perfect squares 9 and 16, and 11 is closer to 9.

    B)The side length on a calculator is 3.31.

    C)The carpet will not fit because 11x11=121m and his room is only 20m
    which is clearly way off.

    Done by Suzie and Emily once again.

    Question 14:
    A: 9x9=81
    12x12=144
    15x15=225
    81+144=225. Is a right triangle.

    B: 7x7=49
    8x8=64
    11x11=121
    49+64=113. Not a right triangle.

    C: 7x7=49
    24x24=576
    25x25=625
    49+576=645. Not a right triangle.

    D: 16x16=256
    30x30=900
    34x34=1156
    256=900=1156 Is a right triangle.

    E: 10x10=100
    11x11=121
    14x14=196
    100+121=221. Not a right triangle.

  3. Question 12:
    a)My estimation of the side length of the rug is 3.3m

    b) The approximation on the calculator is 3.31662479

    c) The rug will fit because the side length of the rug is approximately 3.3m and the shortest side length in the room is 4m. The area of the rug is also only 11m2 and the area of the room is 4mx5m=20m2.

    Triangle A:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 15cm2 15cm2=225cm2)
    9cm2+12cm2=c2
    (9cmx9cm)+(12cmx12cm)=c2
    81cm2+144cm2=225cm2
    225cm2=225cm2
    It is a right triangle.

    Triangle B:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 11cm2 11cm2=121cm2)
    7cm2+8cm2=c2
    (7cmx7cm)+(8cmx8cm)=c2
    49cm2+64cm2=113cm2
    121cm2 does not equal 113cm2 so it is not a right triangle.

    Triangle C:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 25cm2 25cm2=625cm2)
    7cm2+24cm2=c2
    (7cmx7cm)+(24cmx24cm)=c2
    49cm2+576cm2=625cm2
    625cm2=625cm2
    It is a right triangle.

    Triangle D:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 34cm2 34cm2=1156cm2)
    16cm2+30cm2=c2
    (16cmx16cm)+(30cmx30cm)=c2
    256cm2+900cm2=1156cm2
    1156cm2=1156cm2
    It is a right triangle.

    Triangle E:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 14cm2 14cm2=196cm2)
    10cm2+11cm2=c2
    (10cmx10cm)+(11cmx11cm)=c2
    100cm2+121cm2=221cm2
    196cm2 does not equal 221cm2 so it is not a right triangle.

    Question 12:

    a)My estimate of the side length is 3.3m.

    b)Calculator estimate is √11 = 3.31662479.

    c)The rug will fit since the side length (3.3m) is less than the side length of the shorter part of the wall. Also the area of the rug is 11m2 and the area of the room is 20m2.

    Question 14:

    Triangle A is a right triangle:
    a2+b2=c2
    (9x9)+(12x12)=(15x15)
    81cm2+144cm2=225cm2
    225cm2=225cm2

    Triangle B is not a right triangle :
    a2+b2=c2
    (7x7)+(8x8)=(11x11)
    49cm2+64cm2=113cm2
    113cm2≠121cm2

  6. Station 3:

    Question 12:
    a)My estimation on the side length is 3.3m² because the 2 perfect squares near 11 is 9 and 16. (3x3) and (4x4) and I chose a number in between 3 and 4.
    b)The side length is 3.31m².
    c)Yes, it will fit because 3.31m² is smaller than the area of his bedroom.

    Question 14:
    A; a² + b² = c²
    9² + 12² = 15²
    (9x9) + (12x12) = (15x15)

    225cm² = 225cm²
    It is a right triangle.

    B; a² + b² = c²
    7² + 8² = 11²
    (7x7) + (8x8) = (11x11)

    113cm² = 121cm²
    It is not a right triangle.

    C; a² + b² = c²
    7² + 24² = 25²
    (7x7) + (24x24) = (25x25)
    49cm + 576cm = 625cm
    625cm² = 625cm²
    It is a right triangle.

    D; a² + b² = c²
    16² + 30² = 34²
    (16x16) + (30x30) = (34x34)
    256cm + 900cm = 1156cm
    1156cm² = 1156cm²
    It is a right triangle.

    E; a² + b² = c²
    10² + 11² = 14²
    (10x10) + (11x11) = (14x14)
    100cm + 121cm = 196cm
    221cm² = 196cm²

  9. Question 12:

    A)I estimate the side length will be 3.3 m² because the perfect squares near 11 is 9 (3 x 3) and 16 (4 x 4). Since 11 is closer to 9 the side length is likely to be around 3.

    It is a right triangle

    Triangle D-

    a² + b² = c²
    16² + 30² = 34²

  13. #12
    a)√11=3.2
    I got 3.2 because 11 is between 9 and 16.Their square roots are 3 and 4. That means the square root is between those 2 digits. Since it's closer to 9, it must be 3.*, I got the .2 because in the numberline 11 is the second number from 9.

    b)√11= 3.31

    c)The rug will fit because the area of of is bedroom is 20m² and the area of the rug is only 11m²
    .That means the rug is smaller than the bedroom which is why the rug can fit.

    Question 12

    a)My estimation was 3.3m² because 11 is between 9 (3x3) and 16 (4x4), and so 11 is closer to nine.

    b) The side length is 3.31m²

    c) Yes, the carpet will fit because the side length of the rug is smaller than the side lengths of the room.

  19. QUESTION 12:

    a.) 3 x 3 = 9
    4 x 4 = 16

    9 is closer to 11. But in this question, they're looking for side length.
    Since the side length of 9 is 3, we'll use 3 for our whole number.
    3. ___
    Now, we just need to find out one decimal to replace the blank. To find the answer to that, count the intervals between 9 and 11.
    11 - 9 = 2

    The estimated answer will be,3.2 m

    b.) By using my calculator, I multiplied 3.2 by itself to check it.
    3.2 x 3.2 = 10.24

    c.) Yes, the rug will fit because the sides of the rug is smaller than the size of his room.

    QUESTION 14:
    TRIANGLE A
    a² + b² = c²
    9² + 12² = 15²
    (9x9) + (12x12) = 15x15

    225 cm² = 225 cm²
    This IS a right triangle.

    TRIANGLE B
    a² + b² = c²
    7² + 8² = 11²
    (7x7) + (8x8) = 11x11

    113 cm² ≠ 121 cm²
    This IS NOT a right triangle.

    TRIANGLE C
    a² + b² = c²
    7² + 24² = 25²

    49 cm² + 576 cm² = 625 cm²
    625 cm² = 625 cm²
    This IS a right triangle.

    TRIANGLE D
    a² + b² = c²
    16² + 30² = 34²
    (16x16) + (30x30) = 34x34
    206 cm² + 900 cm² = 1156 cm²
    1156 cm² = 1156 cm²
    This IS a right triangle.

    TRIANGLE E
    a² + b² = c²
    10² + 11² = 14²
    (10x10) + (11x11) = 14x14

    (7cmx7cm)+(8cmx8cm)=c2
    49cm2+64cm2=113cm2
    121cm2 does not equal 113cm2 so it is not a right triangle.

    Triangle C:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 25cm2 25cm2=625cm2)
    7cm2+24cm2=c2
    (7cmx7cm)+(24cmx24cm)=c2
    49cm2+576cm2=625cm2
    625cm2=625cm2
    It is a right triangle.

    Triangle D:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 34cm2 34cm2=1156cm2)
    16cm2+30cm2=c2
    (16cmx16cm)+(30cmx30cm)=c2
    256cm2+900cm2=1156cm2
    1156cm2=1156cm2
    It is a right triangle.

    Triangle E:
    a2+b2=c2 (c2= 14cm2 14cm2=196cm2)
    10cm2+11cm2=c2
    (10cmx10cm)+(11cmx11cm)=c2
    100cm2+121cm2=221cm2
    196cm2 does not equal 221cm2 so it is not a right triangle.

  32. QUESTION 12:

    A)My estimate of the side length is 3.3m.

    B) By using my calculator, I multiplied 3.2 by itself to check it.
    3.2 x 3.2 = 10.24

    C) Yes, the rug will fit because the sides of the rug is smaller than the size of his room.


    Question 14:
    A: 9x9=81
    12x12=144
    15x15=225
    81+144=225. Is a right triangle.

    B: 7x7=49
    8x8=64
    11x11=121
    49+64=113. It is Not a right triangle.

    C: 7x7=49
    24x24=576
    25x25=625
    49+576=645. It is Not a right triangle.

    D: 16x16=256
    30x30=900
    34x34=1156
    256=900=1156 Is a right triangle.

    E: 10x10=100
    11x11=121
    14x14=196
    100+121=221. It is Not a right triangle.
