This math topic focuses on the application of the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of a missing side of a triangle, expressed in radical form (i.e., square roots). It serves as an introductory exploration into the Pythagorean theorem, aiming to deepen understanding of the relationship between the sides of right-angled triangles. The problems presented require students to calculate and express answers as radicals, bolstering their skills in both geometry and algebraic manipulation. Each question features a diagram of a right triangle with dimensions provided, prompting the student to solve for the unknown side.
