Illustration used to prove the Pythagorean Theorem, according to Euclid. A perpendicular is drawn from the top vertex of the right triangle extended through the bottom square, forming 2 rectangles. Each rectangle has the same area as one of the two legs. This proves that the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse (Pythagorean Theorem).

This fraction chart can be used for students to find A, B, and C in percentage. It can also be used to answer these questions (if it is 2.5 by 2 inches): "How many square inches in the entire figure? How many square inches in C? What part of a square inch is B? How large is A when compared to C? How large is B when compared to A? Into how many quarter-inch squares could you divide the whole figure?" -Foster, 1921

"The Metre Bridge is employed - a piece of apparatus which is illustrated [here]. It consists of a wooden base, upon the upper face of which is mounted a metallic rectangle; three sides of this rectangle are formed by a broad substantial copper band - having a negligible resistance - and the fourth consists of a platinum silver wire w w joining the copper blocks P and p. This wire is exactly one meter long, and over it slides a key K, which when depressed makes contact by means of a platinum knife-edge with the wire; the exact point on the wire at which this contact is made is indicated by an arrow-head on the key, which slides against a scale, as shown."
