Your turn now try to solve the equations below and don't forget c²= a²+b²
1. Pythagoras leaves the market to go home. he walks 6 blocks north then 8 blocks west. how far is the market from home?
let c be the missing distance from the market to home a=6 and b=8
2. Pythagoras is traveling to Egypt he has to go 10 miles south and 20 miles west how many miles will he go?
let c be the missing distance and have a=10 and b=20
3. Theano went to visit Pythagoras in Egypt but she took a different route. she went 5 miles east and 3 miles south. how far did she travel?
let c bet the missing distance and have a= 5 and b=3
4. Telauges, Mnesarchus, and damo went to study in Paris but along the way got lost. all they know is that they traveled a total of 90 miles, they went 36 miles east and they were going north for a while. how many miles north did they travel?
let a be the missing distance and have c=90 and b=36
5. pythagoras was traveling home with his wife when he found his lost kids and showed them how to get to Paris they had to go 99 miles south and 89 miles west how far off were they?
let c be the missing distance and have a=99 and b=89
6. pythagoras decided to travel he didnt know where he wanted to go so he just started walking. he started by goin 100 miles south then 99 miles west how far did he travel?
let c be the missing distance and have a=100 and b=99
