This is a PPT that introduces Pythagoras' Theorem using pythagorean triples as a starter and linking the sizes of Television screens to the hypotenuse. Each slide is accompanied by notes highlighting the thinking of the author. This is a different take on the traditional Pythagoras' lesson. Enjoy!!
