Estimate the distance between each set of two points in terms of the lengths of the [color=#6aa84f][b]hypotenuse[/b][/color] and [color=#6aa84f][b]legs[/b][/color] of the right triangle:[list=1][*](0,0) and (6,3)[/*][*](-3,5) and (2,1)[/*][*](-7,-4) and (3,-8)[/*][*](4,-2) and (0,2)[/*][/list]What patterns are there between these lengths? Use the words [b][color=#6aa84f]hypotenuse[/color][/b] and [color=#6aa84f][b]leg[/b][/color].
[list=1][*]Leg lengths = 6 & 3, and 3 < 6 < hypotenuse length < 6+3=9. [/*][*]Leg lengths = 5 & 4, and 4 < 5 < hypotenuse length < 5+4=9.[/*][*]Leg lengths = 10 & 4, and 4 < 10 < hypotenuse length < 10+4=14. [/*][*]Leg lengths = 4 & 4, and 4 = 4 < hypotenuse length < 4+4=8.[br][/*][/list]The hypotenuse length (diagonal distance) is greater than either leg length, but less than both leg lengths together.
