This math topic focuses on applying the Pythagorean Theorem in three-dimensional contexts, specifically involving calculating distances or dimensions in a 3D space using 'double triangles.' The problems ask for the length of a specific side in a 3D figure given the hypotenuse distance between two points. This is intended for introductory practice in understanding how the Pythagorean Theorem extends to three dimensions, enhancing spatial reasoning and geometry skills.
