How do you solve for a missing side length in a right triangle using the Pythagorean theorem?

• Apply the Pythagorean theorem formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where 'a' and 'b' are the known side lengths and 'c' is the hypotenuse. Solve for the missing side length by taking the square root of the result.

• Subtract the two known side lengths

• Multiply the two known side lengths

• Divide the two known side lengths
