Prepare the hands-on activity
Place the two smaller matched pieces on one side of the balance.

Pythagorean Balance Exhibit — design views
Design-image sequence
Inspect the reference images.
Compare Pythagorean Balance Exhibit in five labelled still views. Use a balance and matched geometric pieces to compare the combined area of two smaller shapes with a larger matching shape.

Look at the action.
Understand the reference.
Design views of Pythagorean Balance Exhibit. These still images show the reference layout; they do not record the activity in operation.
Plan the comparison
Identify which square each piece represents before comparing the two balance pans.
Question to explore
Why can two smaller pieces balance one larger piece? Match the pieces to the three squares of a right triangle.
This film sequences existing reference images. It is not continuous operating footage or a moving 3D simulation; final function and configuration follow the agreed project.
