Question

Laura draws a right triangle she then creates three squares using each side of the triangle shown

Answer 1

The correct way of proving Pythagoras Theorem here is:
4- to prove that the area of two smaller squares combined is equal to the large square

This is because Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of the square of the two smaller sides is equivalent to the square of the third side. The squares of the sides are represented as the area of the squares because the area of a square is obtained by multiplying a length by itself, or squaring it.
