Prompt: The following four images show several steps in a visual proof of the Pythagorean Thoerem.
1. Choose an image (2,3, or 4) and answer the questions.
A. How does this image change from the previous image?
For example, if you choose image three, describe what transformations were used to get image two.
B. Choose one to figure in your image, and explain how the length of the figure are related to the figure in image one. For example, if you choose figure 5 in image three, describe how its lengths are related to the figure in image one.
C. How does the length of the figure you describe in 1b relate to the Pythagorean Theorem? For example, if you describe figure 5 in image three, explain how it’s links, relate to a^2+b^2 = c^2.
2. How does the visual proof demonstrate the Pythagorean Theorem? Hint: describe how the figures labeled 5 through 9 related to figures two and 10 an image 4.
