Pythagorean Triples - Length of Side (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on finding the lengths of missing sides in triangles using the Pythagorean theorem. It specifically deals with Pythagorean triples and emphasizes performing calculations to find side lengths as decimal values. Students are provided with multiple choice questions where they select the correct length for missing sides, given triangles with various side dimensions. This practice helps strengthen students' understanding and application of the Pythagorean theorem in solving real-world geometric problems.
