It's not as complicated as it sounds; okay. Picture a right triangle. It has three sides, or legs. One side is leg a, the other leg b, and the other leg c. The point of it is just to find what one of the leg's measurements are. The Pythagorean Theorem is technically just "a2 + b2 = c2"
So it's saying that you multiply whatever leg a is by itself, and leg b by itself, add them together, and that will get you c2. Then use a calculator to find the square root of whatever total you got for c2.
