Pythagorean Theorem - Variable-Named Sides to Square Equation (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on practicing the Pythagorean Theorem. Students apply the theorem to derive equations for the square of a side in various triangle diagrams, where each side is represented by a variable (e.g., \( m^2 = z^2 + x^2 \)). The worksheet provides multiple-choice questions where students must select the correct equation that represents the relationship between the sides of the triangles according to the Pythagorean theorem. This is part of an introductory unit on Pythagorean theorem concepts.
