Geometry problems“17” ProblemThe horizontal and vertical distances between pegs on the square-array geoboard shown here are equal. If the outlined figures have a total area of 17 units
2, how far apart are consecutive horizontal pegs?

The lunes and the triangleIn the diagram below, DFE is a right triangle, where angle DFE is the right angle. Points A, B, and C are the midpoints of line segments DF, FE, and ED respectively. Three circles are drawn with centers at A, B, and C, with diameters DF, FE, and ED respectively.
Given that you know the Pythagorean theorem holds between sides of a right triangle, prove that the sum of the areas of the semicircles on the legs of a right triangle is equal to the area of the semicircle on the hypotenuse. Refer to the diagram below in your proof.

Traveling TriangleThe diagram below shows a square withsides of length 2 inches and an equilateraltriangle
ABC with sides of length 1 inch sittinginside it. The vertex
B is at one corner of thesquare and the side
BC lies along the square’sbottom edge. The triangle is rotated in aclockwise direction about its corners
C,
A,
B inturn and rolls without slipping inside of thesquare. If the triangle is rotated until the corners
A,
B, and
C have returned to their
originalpositions, what is the
total distance travelled bythe point
A?
Hint #1: You may want to create a visual model for yourself with a triangle and a square to see what happens.Hint #2: What geometric shape does the trajectory of point A resemble? (2 points)
