Pythagorean Theorm
1. Rewrite the standard in your own words. How does this assignment relate to the standard?
The standard is to use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve real world situations in different dimensions. This assignment was a murder mystery and my mission was to find out who the killer was using the Pythagorean Theorem. Using the Pythagorean Theorem to find out the killer relates to the standard because the suspects were on different buildings with different heights and I used it to find the killer.
2. What are the steps you took to complete and do well on this assignment?
First, I had to analyze the suspects and the different towers they were on. Using that, I also analyzed the height of the towers and started on the real paper. On the paper, I drew out the format and drew out the answers and colored it. Then on the back of the paper, I wrote a real life news report saying who the killer was and how I found it.
3. This assignment demonstrates the following strengths…
This assignment demonstrates that I am able to use the Pythagorean Theorem to do real life situations and am able to do what I know to figure it out. Also, this also shows that I can create an assignment according to my imagination.
4. I could have improved my work on this assignment by …
I could have improved on this assignment by showing more work and explaining how I go that answer and how I solved this. I should have done more and wrote down more information and I felt that I didn´t explain enough and do enough. I could have put in more effort.
5. How will you apply the skills you learned from this assignment in either the real world when you are an adult or in other classes while you are still a student?
In the real world, I will be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem in many different things and I will be able to solve and figure things out. This assignment helps develop how I will be able to problem solve in the future and be able to actually think and analyze the situation.
