This looks like a great first project for the Fireball Comet. The famous Pythagorean Theorem states that if $latex a$ and $latex b$ are the lengths of two legs of a right triangle and $latex c$ is the length of the hypotenuse, then

$latex a^2 + b^2 = c^2.$

This puzzle demonstrates this theorem, by challenging the solver to make a square with area $latex c^2$ using the pieces taken from the two squares with areas $latex a^2$ and $latex b^2$.
