1. "RE: Proof Of Pythagorean Theorem By Translation"
In response to message #0

> May be it is new one? This is the geometric proof #127 from Loomis' book. #174 moves square BCE'C3 to the position EC2B2X. This gives you an idea of the length Loomis went to to make the number of proofs beyond 300. I think we both may find a better occupation than seeking additional proofs of the Pythagorean theorem. For me, the important thing is a novel outlook - a new view point - rather than the sheer novelty of the method. There are about 250 proofs in Loomis' book that I have no plans of including in my pages. |

You may be curious to have a look at the old CTK Exchange archive. Please do not post there.
