In this past lesson, you learned how to use the square root, or math.sqrt to
compute the hypotenuse of a right triangle using the Pythagorean Theorem, which is $c^2=a^2+b^2$.
In this lesson, we'll use the if statement and develop this more into a complete Pythagorean Theorem
calculator.
This code will ask you for then length of all 3 sides of a right triangle. For the side you don't know,
type in a question mark (?). A series of if statements can be used to figure out which side
to calculate for you.
Now you try. Fix each if statement with a true/false question to see if the variable computed within
its body is the one for which the user typed a ?.
Type your code here:
See your results here:
This code will not run as-is. You have to fix each if statement to see if the variable computed
within the body of the if statement is the one that has the ? symbol in it.
