1.11. In the three right-angle triangles from "Experimental problem no.2 - Experimental verification of Pythagoras' theorem.", draw the height corresponding to the hypotenuse and note the foot perpendicular to the hypotenuse.

Using the ruler, measure these heights and the projections of the legs (catheti) on the hypotenuse.

Complete your determinations in the following tables and process the data:




1.12. Compare the results obtained in the last two columns of the table and draw the conclusion of your experiment. The equality you get is called The Height Theorem. Write the statement of this theorem.




1.13. Compare the results obtained in the last two columns of the table and draw the conclusion of your experiment. The equality you get is called The Leg (Cathetus) Theorem. Write the statement of this theorem.
