Pythagorean Theorem
- See Pythagorean demonstration. This Java applet from Manipula Math shows how the sum of the squares of the sides will equal the square of the hypotenuse.
Angle Analysis
- See exterior angle demonstration. This wonderful Java applet from Manipula Math gives a convincing visual argument that no matter how many sides a polygon has, the sum of the exterior angle must always be 360º.
- See demonstration of triangle with "rigid" area. In this Java applet from Manipula Math, you can drag triangle vertices around a parallelogram, yet the area remains constant
