D. Analysis
1. Based on the given figures, what is their difference?
2.How many sides are unknown in the first figure? How about the second
figure?
3. Do you know how to get the missing/unknown sides?
4. What do you think is the formula in finding the unknown sides?

E. Abstraction
In a 45 ˚- 45 ˚- 90 ˚ triangle theorem, the legs are congruent. The length of the
hypotenuse is √2 times the length of a leg (h=√2a). And in 30 ˚- 60 ˚- 90 ˚
triangle theorem, the length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter
leg (h=2a). The length of the longer leg is √3 times the length of the shorter
leg (b=√3a).

45 ˚- 45 ˚- 90 ˚ triangle theorem 30 ˚- 60 ˚- 90 ˚ triangle theorem
h=√2a h=2a
h= √2 (4) or h= 4 .√2 h=2 (2√3)
h = 4√2 h=4√3
b=√3a
h=√2a 4= a or a= 4 b= √3 (2√3)
4√2= √2a b= 2√9
