About this video

This is a short, animated visual proof of the Pythagorean theorem (the right triangle theorem) where we show how to use Euclid's shear and rotate proof to create a dissection proof.

The dissection proof was suggested to me by Glen Whitney (https://studioinfinity.org/), and Glen then found a similar dissection in the compendium of Pythagorean theorem proofs from Elisha Loomis (Proof 21 on p. 122 ).
