Description
STEP 15 of Middle School Math Escape Step by Step, after Step 14 (Slope). The last step; also in the series bundle. A self-checking Pythagorean theorem escape room for Grades 8-9. The castle is closing and 4 doors are locked! Solve each clue, find your answer in the code key and earn a code letter. The classic slips (adding the sides, forgetting the square root, adding when a leg is missing) land on other letters. 27 cards, 20 scored. WHAT IT TEACHES Squares on the sides of a right triangle, finding the hypotenuse, finding a missing leg, testing for a right triangle, ladders and ropes, the diagonal of a box, and the distance between two points on the grid. HOW THE GAME WORKS - Each room opens with a learn card and a picture. - 16 clue cards: type the length or area, or tap 1 of 3 answers. - 4 door cards: 4 missing lengths, then type the code. - Every answer is a whole number. SELF-CHECKING, WITH HELP WHEN STUCK - Boom scores every question; wrong answers show at once for a retry. - Two tap-to-show hints per question: a nudge, then the method. ACCURACY Every answer is checked by our own software and by AI test solves from the cards alone, without the answer key. It has not been tested with a class. No process is perfect; if you spot an error, please tell us through the store's feedback. HOW IT WAS MADE Text written with AI assistance and fact-checked. All images are drawn in code; no AI image generators were used. No sound. Plays in a browser; needs internet.
