Pythagoras' theorem

What the teaching sequence covers here

Use Pythagoras' theorem to find any unknown side of a right-angled triangle, check whether a triangle contains a right angle, and derive the formula for the distance between two points on the coordinate plane.

Worksheet gap

ChalkBee does not yet have a suitably matched Year 10 worksheet for this part of the teaching sequence. You can still build practice from the worksheet generator, and we would rather show a gap than overclaim coverage.
