This math topic focuses on using the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle when given the lengths of the other two sides (legs) as integers. Each problem presents an equation based on the theorem format \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\), and students have multiple choice answers to determine the correct length (c) of the hypotenuse. These problems aim to strengthen understanding and application of the Pythagorean theorem within a foundational context of Pythagorean mathematics.
