Error Analysis: Sandra drew the triangle below. Rika said that the labeled lengths are not possible. With which student do you agree? Explain.

Reasoning: A test question asks you to find two side lengths of a 45-45-90 triangle. You know that the length of one leg is 6, but you forgot the special formula for 45-45-90 triangles. Explain how you can still determind the other side lengths. What are the other side lengths?

Review Lesson 8-1: A right triangle has a 6-in. hypotenuse and a 5-in. leg. Find the length of the other leg in simplest radical form.

Review Lesson 7-1: Solve each proportion.Match the solutions on the left with the proportions on the right. Solutions are written as reduced fractions or decimals rounded to the nearest hundredth. Not all solutions will be used. Not all proportions will be solved.

Vocabulary Review: Which segment is a diagonal of square ABCD?
