This GeoGebra applet dynamically demonstrates a classic proof of the Pythagorean theorem using the method of dividing the leg. By constructing a right triangle and polygons on its sides, it utilizes geometric transformations such as translation, intersection, and area dissection to visually show that the sum of the squares of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse. It helps students deeply u
