The most wonderful proff is to inscirbe a square iinside another

take the length of the larger side be a + b

and the smaller be c

now area is sum of areae of the right angled triangles and the smaller square...

try using this hint or i will post the solution once i am back home :)

This image is from wikipedia...

area of the largest square is

(a+b)2 = 1/2ab. 4 + c2

hence a2+b2=c2
