Summary

The Pythagorean theorem shown using the Conant-Beyer Generalization by projecting a line segment (shown in blue) onto the x-axis and the y-axis. The sum of the squares of the projection lengths (shown in green) equals the square of the length of the original line (a2 + b2 = c2). Bringing the original line and its projections together forms a right triangle.
