Draw
• In the Column Q’s section of your notes, attempt to draw a triangle with 1,1,and 3 cm sides.
• Then attempt to draw one with 4,4, and 3 cm sides
• Then attempt to draw one with 3,3, and 5 cm sides.
• Analyze and compare their differences with a student next to you.

Theorem
The Pythagorean Converse
Keep the longest length on the left!
Classify the triangle as right, acute, or obtuse.
