Water-Pouring Proof of the Pythagorean Theorem

This applet demonstrates an intuitive and ingenious water-pouring proof of the Pythagorean theorem. By constructing a right triangle and polygons on its sides, it utilizes area conservation and geometric transformations to simulate the equivalent replacement of area during a water-pouring process. This visually verifies that the sum of the squares of the two legs equals the square of the hypotenus
