The Pythagoras Tree is math art. A square trunk is drawn. The hypotenuse of a right triangle is laid on top of the square. From the two legs two new squares are drawn. This process is repeated recursively until there the size of the square is too small to draw. Here you can adjust the angles of the triangle and the color of the tree. You can also make the tree grow and shrink to see the steps in making the tree.
