Question

Look at the squares, ABCD, CEFG, and PQEB in the figure shown below.



Which fact can be best used to prove that BC2 + CE2 = BE2?

Area of PQEB is greater than the square of the area of CEFG.

Area of PQEB is equal to the sum of the areas of CEFG and ABCD.

Area of CEFG is equal to the sum of the areas of PQEB and ABCD.



Area of PQEB is greater than the square of the area of ABCD.
