Wheel of Theodorus:
You will be creating your own original drawing using the
Pythagorean Theorem. Your drawing must include a
minimum of 15 triangles.
1. Start with a right triangle with legs 1” in length drawn in the
center of your art paper.
2. Connect the vertices to create the hypotenuse of the
triangle 1.
3. Calculate the length of the hypotenuse of that triangle using
the pythagorean theorem. Show all work on lined paper.
(Leave the answer in radical form.)
4. Use the hypotenuse of triangle 1 as one leg (the height) of
your next triangle and draw the other leg as a base of a right
triangle with a length of 1”.
5. Connect the vertices to create the hypotenuse of the triangle
2.
6. Calculate the length of the hypotenuse of that triangle using
the Pythagorean Theorem. Show all work on lined paper.
(Leave the answer in radical form.)
7. Use the hypotenuse of triangle 2 as one leg (the height) of
your next triangle and draw the other leg as a base of a right
triangle with a length of 1”.
8. Follow the same process as described above to create
triangles #3-15 with all work shown for the first 15 triangles.
All lengths should be either whole numbers or in radical
form.
