Pythagorean Theorem - Either Missing Length (Decimal) (Level 1)

This math topic is focused on applying the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of a missing side of a right triangle, with answers provided in decimal values. It introduces basic concepts of Pythagoras' theorem, strengthening students' abilities to calculate and interpret the relationships between the sides of right triangles. Each question involves a visual diagram of a triangle prompting students to use the theorem to determine unknown side lengths. This promotes practical understanding and application of the theorem in solving real-world problems involving right triangles.
