Marissa, Trinity, and I were in a group. I came up with idea to use a hunter in a treestand shooting a deer with a bow. When you are hunting you have sights and have to know how far away the deer is. So you have to figure out the distance to where the deer is. So if you figure out how far away it is and the deer walks there then you will know what sight/pin to use to shoot the deer. So my group used the Pythagorean theorem to figure it out. Our results made sense because our hypotenuse was 28.30 feet, which is the longest measurement of the three measurements we made. This project helped me understand the pythagorean theorem because it gave me a real life visual of a way I could use this in real life.
