1. Pythagorean law
If the right angles are 2 and 3 respectively, then the hypotenuse should be (2 2+3 3)1/2 = root sign 13.
That is, what is the side length of a square? The root number 13, then the square area is 13.
2. Common method
Divide the big square into four triangles and a small square.
The area of four triangles is equal to 4X 1/2X2X3= 12.
The side length of a small square is 3-2= 1,
Then the area of the small square is also 1.
So the total area is 12+ 1= 13.
