4. A Geometric Proof (4 points total) Here is another interesting proof. The smaller white square is inside a larger square. Eac
h blue area is a right triangle. To find the area of the white square, you can find the area of the big square and subtract the areas of the right triangles. b a 1 b b Area of big square = (a + b) Area of 4 triangles = 4 4 tab b Area of white square = big square - 4 shaded triangles a. Use these areas to write an equation for the area of the white square. Simplify the equation if possible. (2 points)
