As shown in the figure, it is known that in △ ABC, ∠ ACB = 90 °, take each side of △ ABC as an edge and make three squares outside △ ABC. S1, S2 and S3 represent the area of the three squares respectively. S1 = 81 and S2 = 225, then S3 = () A. 16B. 306C. 144D. 12

According to the meaning of the question: the area of a square with two right angle sides as the side length is equal to the area of a square with an oblique side length, then S3 = 225-81 = 144
