Solve for the missing side of a right triangle using the pythagorean theorem ex

The video tutorial explains how to solve for a missing side in a right triangle using the Pythagorean theorem. It begins by introducing the theorem and its formula, emphasizing the importance of identifying the hypotenuse and legs. The tutorial then demonstrates the application of the theorem with a specific example, showing the calculation process and solving for the unknown side. The final result is presented as a radical, which cannot be simplified further.
