Revisting Pythagoras Theorem
About the activity:
This activity is designed for introductory workshop on integration of GeoGebra with Google Classroom. Participants will experience use of GeoGebra worksheet to interact with and explore Pythagoras Theorem.
Visual Proof of Pythagoras Theorem:Drag the points and match the colours, what do you notice?
Share your observation: what do you notice? What does this prove?
There are many visual proofs of Pythagoras Theorem , following applet will verify the theorem. Get started by the first checkbox -squares on sides
