2009 TAKS Item– 8th Grade Math – 8.6(A)
Length of PS = 9 units
1/3 of 9 = 3 units
STAAR Sample Item – 8th Grade Math – 8.6(A)
Pythagorean Theorem!! a2 + b2 = c2 62 + 82 = c2 ; 36 + 64 = 100 ; √100 = 10 ;
c = 10 cm6(2.5) + 8(2.5) + 10(2.5) ;
15 + 20 + 25 = 60 cm

Students Taking Advanced Courses
Misc.
• Separate answer docs for 3rd grade
• Increase in the number of items
