vocabulary activity
use the words from the word bank to complete each sentence. some words may be used more than once.

• converse
• corresponding angles
• hypotenuse
• legs
• pythagorean theorem
• square root
• transversal

1. the ____________ of the pythagorean theorem states that if the square of the length of the hypotenuse c is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs a and b, then the triangle is a right triangle.

1. the ____________ states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse c is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs a and b.

1. the two sides of a right triangle that form the right angle are the ____________.

1. angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines in relation to a transversal are ____________.

1. the side opposite the right angle in a right triangle is the ____________.

1. if $a^2 = b$, then a is the ____________ of b.

1. a line that intersects two or more other lines is called a ____________.
