Is there a way to derive Lorentz transforms by knowing just Galilean/Newtonian relativity (adding up velocities) and Pythagoras theorem? I do not understand the principle of homogeneity or any higher mathematics. I can derive t' = gamma * t by using common sense and Pythagoras theorem. I am looking for such easy way to derive Lorentz transforms. I am really new at 'relativity' please help!
