Design: We'll use three pieces of wood, stained different colors, to create the right triangle.Base: A 15-inch piece of dark walnut wood. This will be the longest side (hypotenuse)Height: A 9-inch piece of light oak wood. This will be one of the shorter sides (legs)Other Leg: A 12-inch piece of cherry wood. This is the other shorter side.Math Justification:This is a right triangle because the side lengths satisfy the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c².a = 9 inches (oak)b = 12 inches (cherry)c = 15 inches (walnut)Let's check: 9² + 12² = 81 + 144 = 225. And 15² = 225. Since the equation holds true, it's a right-angled triangle!Colors and Usage:The wood's natural colors create a warm, earthy feel. Walnut's dark richness grounds the design, while oak's lightness and cherry's reddish tones add visual interest and a touch of elegance. The piece can be mounted directly on the wall or hung with wire. It would look great in a living room or study.Additional Ideas:You could add small LED lights behind the wood to create a glowing effect. ✨Consider using different types of wood with more contrasting colors for a bolder look.Add a small wooden cutout of a mathematical symbol (like a right angle symbol) to enhance the theme.
