Pythagorean Theorem Unit (Lessons, Performance Tasks, Assessments)

Pythagorean Theorem Unit contains four lessons with a quiz and exam. Lessons are for double-period classes or can be split into multiple days. All lessons include an opening activity, minilesson with guided steps through the process, examples, class activities and a worksheet for homework. Answer keys included. In addition to the lesson plan, a Performance Task is included for each lesson as well as screencasts for flipped classrooms or additional student support. This file contains a quiz for the following lessons: **1) The Pythagorean Theorem Introduction Lesson Plan** This is an introduction to the Pythagorean Theorem and using the theorem to find the measures of the sides of right triangles. **2) The Pythagorean Theorem, Pt. II Lesson Plan** This lesson uses the Pythagorean Theorem for three different applications: a) finding the distance between two points in a coordinate plane, b) finding the length of a diagonal in a three-dimensional figure, and c) using the Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem to determine if a triangle is a right triangle. **3) Using Pythagorean Theorem to Solve Real-World Problems Lesson** Students will use the information in the word problem to draw a diagram and label the given lengths. Students will then substitute the measurements into the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing lengths. **4) Proof of the Pythagorean Theorem and its Converse** This full lesson plan presents students with several opportunities to explore different proofs for the Pythagorean Theorem. **5) Pythagorean Theorem Quiz and Unit Exam** There are two versions of the quiz and exam. One version can be used as a unit review or study guide instead.
