### Building Tetrahedra

Can you make a tetrahedron whose faces all have the same perimeter?

A 1 metre cube has one face on the ground and one face against a wall. A 4 metre ladder leans against the wall and just touches the cube. How high is the top of the ladder above the ground?

Four rods are hinged at their ends to form a convex quadrilateral. Investigate the different shapes that the quadrilateral can take. Be patient this problem may be slow to load.

$6^1 = 6$
$6^2 = 36$
$6^3 = 216$
$6^4 = ...6$ since the last digit comes from multipying the previous last digit by $6$

Last digit of $66^{66}$ is $6$

Divide by $2$: Last digit will be $3$ or $8$

$66^{66}$ will be a multiple of $4$ (because $66$ and $66^{65}$ are both even) so $66^{66}\div2$ is even so the last digit must be $8$, not $3$.
