11- Consider the diagram below, where the shaded rectangle's length is twice the height (you may assume all the figures that look like squares are in fact squares). Write a dialog (similar to "Meno") where you lead a person to the conclusion that the square on the diagonal of the rectangle is equal to the sum of the square on the length plus the square on the height of the rectangle. You may NOT use or in any way refer to the theorem about right triangles.
