This math topic focuses on applying the 3D Pythagorean Theorem to calculate distances in a rectangular prism. Specifically, students are tasked with finding the distance from a given point (Point A) to the center of a face (BCDE) of the prism. Each problem involves determining this hypotenuse distance using the theorem, where distances like half the height and half the depth of the prism are utilized in calculations. The worksheet contains multiple-choice questions that allow students to practice and solidify their understanding of geometric principles in three-dimensional space.
