This math topic focuses on verifying the validity of Pythagorean identities involving sine and cosine functions in trigonometry. The problems require students to judge if given trigonometric identities, expressed in degree measures, are correct. Specifically, students assess various forms of the identity \( \sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta) = 1 \) by checking equations presented in differing arrangements. This involves a fundamental understanding of trigonometric functions and their relations as per Pythagorean identities.
