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

This math topic covers exercises that focus on solving for a missing side of a triangle using the Pythagorean theorem. Each problem presents a different triangle, and students are required to write an equation to find the length of one side based on the given sides. The problems entail using both addition and subtraction of squares and extracting square roots, reinforcing understanding of the Pythagorean theorem. This is aimed at beginners as it is part of an introductory unit on Pythagoras.
