Pythagorean Data

Find examples of different triangle types (acute, obtuse, right, equilateral, isosceles and scalene). For each, record whether the sum of the areas of the smaller squares is <, =, or > the area of the large square. Look for patterns. Think about why the patterns might be true. What's going on?
