Summit Math Algebra 2 Book 8: The Pythagorean Theorem and Special Right Triangles (Algebra 2 Series - 2nd Edition) - 8737

This textbook series supports both independent study and classroom learning, empowering students to learn at their own pace, whether working individually or collaboratively. The author makes each concept easy to understand and actively engages students in a step-by-step process of building genuine understanding, rather than memorizing formulas without knowing why they work. With careful pacing, clear explanations, and a detailed answer key for timely feedback and helpful guidance, the uniquely scaffolded approach allows students to learn math anywhere, at school or at home. Written by a teacher with over 20 years of experience, each feature is designed to benefit students. Published as separate books instead of a single textbook, students feel a sense of achievement when they finish each book, making learning feel less intimidating. Each lightweight book has 2 parts. The first half uses small steps to guide students through the process of constructing each concept, while the second half provides additional practice to reinforce learning and improve retention. Every section includes an answer key to provide teacher-like feedback that helps students keep moving forward. This curriculum is named Summit Math to reflect the author's belief that learning is like hiking. Anyone can reach the summit, at their own pace, if they keep taking small steps. Book description: In this book, students will review the Pythagorean Theorem and then learn that they can use right triangles to create the Distance Formula. They will discover that they can use squares to learn about 45-45-90 triangles. They will realize that 30-60-90 triangles are hidden inside equilateral triangles. They will use the Pythagorean Theorem in many different ways as they encounter a wide variety of right triangle scenarios. This book comes at the end of the Algebra 2 Series to prepare students for future learning in Geometry and Trigonometry.
