You cannot unzip files on the iPad natively. You'll have to download another application to do that for you. If you want to open files on your iPad, you should use cloud sharing services like DropBox, Copy or whatever and put files up on there.

With the iOS clients for these service, you can open the files..

Press and hold down on the icon and you should get the option to open with.... Choose appropriate App and see if that works.
