Can you cover the camel with these pieces?

Try continuing these patterns made from triangles. Can you create your own repeating pattern?

Using LOGO, can you construct elegant procedures that will draw this family of 'floor coverings'?

What is the same and what is different about these tiling patterns and how do they contribute to the floor as a whole?

Can you recreate these designs? What are the basic units? What movement is required between each unit? Some elegant use of procedures will help - variables not essential.

Go on a vector walk and determine which points on the walk are closest to the origin.

Three examples of particular tilings of the plane, namely those where - NOT all corners of the tile are vertices of the tiling. You might like to produce an elegant program to replicate one or all of these.

L triominoes can fit together to make larger versions of themselves. Is every size possible to make in this way?
