There are hundreds of proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. It has been said there are more proofs for this theorem than any other. Here is a link that mentions a book that discusses 367 of the proofs.

I doubt anyone really knows how many proofs there are.

The Pythagorean Proposition, a book published in 1940, contains 370 proofs of Pythagoras' theorem, including one by American President James Garfield.

I can only prove a few ways, but think it is more than 25
