This topic focuses on solving the Pythagorean theorem equations for missing side lengths in right triangles. Each problem provides a different equation where one side length (either 'a,' 'b,' or 'c,' where 'c' is the hypotenuse) is unknown, and students must determine its integer value. The length of the sides are squared in the equations, which aligns with the Pythagorean theorem's formula, \( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \). The topic aims to improve students' ability to manipulate algebraic equations and reinforce their understanding of basic geometric principles involving right triangles.
