This fascinating video details the journey that a group of friends made in Nevada. Their aim was to illustrate the solar system to scale.

By the end of this unit you will be able to:

• Identify different types of triangles.
• Investigate the relationship between the sides of a right-angled triangle to develop the Theorem of Pythagoras.
• Use the Theorem of Pythagoras to find missing lengths in right angled triangles.
