Well, I'm very happy that you both liked it! Upon reviewing the list of Pythagorean proofs, mine seems to be very similar to #79, but using the Broken Chord theorem instead of the dashed bisector line GI to establish the basic relation. I set out only to use the Broken Chord and Intersecting Chord theorems together; the nicely symmetrical diagram was just a bonus.--Stuart Anderson
