### Bracelets

Investigate the different shaped bracelets you could make from 18 different spherical beads. How do they compare if you use 24 beads?

### Part the Polygons

Draw three straight lines to separate these shapes into four groups - each group must contain one of each shape.

### Hexagon Transformations

Can you cut a regular hexagon into two pieces to make a parallelogram? Try cutting it into three pieces to make a rhombus!

# Is a Square a Rectangle?

##### Stage: 2 Challenge Level:

We have had a solution from someone who unfortunately didn't give his or her name, but it says that there are $14$ different rectangles:

 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

Rectangles 1 and 4 are the same as each other.
Rectangles 5, 8, 10 and 12 are the same as each other.
Rectangles 6 and 11 (which are squares) are the same as each other.
Rectangles 3 and 13 are also squares but they are not the same as each other. They are similar to 6 and 11.
Rectangles 2, 7, 9 and 14 are different to each other and not similar to any other rectangle.
