Summary

As a part time job I tutor GCSE maths in the UK. One of the key areas wecover are geometry. In most areas in life it will be rare to never need touse this fundamental equation. having an understanding will make using itso much easier.

I have created this model to help demonstrate the beautiful simplicity ofPythagoras. Using this kit will help students actually understand why theequations work and what they mean rather than just knowing an equation.a^2+b^2=c^2, seems relatively meaningless without truly understandingwhy that is the case.

Hopefully this can be help for any parents trying to provide some help witheducation at home.

You will need to print one of the triangle, this should be printed so theindent of the triangle is facing upwards.

You will need to print a total of 50 squares.... 3^2+4^2=5^2.....9+16=25so 50 total. :)

If you want them in different colours like I have you will want to print inbatches of 9 then 16 then 25. To print the squares have the large base flaton the bed.
