This animation builds a right triangle with legs of length 3 and 4, then constructs squares on each side to show how their areas relate. Watch as the squares of 3 and 4 combine visually to match the square of 5, the hypotenuse, demonstrating a² + b² = c² with concrete numbers. Useful for students first learning the Pythagorean theorem and teachers introducing proof-by-area reasoning in geometry class.
