Any three squares can be put together to create a right triangle in the center.
The sides of the squares are equal to the square of the areas.
The area of the three squares that create a right triangle are always multiples of 3, 4, and 5.
The sides of the right triangle in the center must have the relationship that the smaller two legs add to equal the longest side.
.
To make a right triangle in the center, the area of the smaller two squares must add to equal the area of the largest square.
To make a right triangle in the center, the area of the smaller two squares must add to equal the area of the largest square.
are you sure that is the correct answer
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. The correct statement about the Proof of the Pythagorean Theorem is:
To make a right triangle in the center, the area of the smaller two squares must add to equal the area of the largest square.
