problemTilted squares
It's easy to work out the areas of most squares that we meet, but what if they were tilted?
-
problemIsosceles triangles
Draw some isosceles triangles with an area of $9$cm$^2$ and a vertex at (20,20). If all the vertices must have whole number coordinates, how many is it possible to draw?
-
problemConstructing triangles
Generate three random numbers to determine the side lengths of a triangle. What triangles can you draw?
-
problemShapely pairs
A game in which players take it in turns to turn up two cards. If they can draw a triangle which satisfies both properties they win the pair of cards. And a few challenging questions to follow...
-
problemProperty chart
A game in which players take it in turns to try to draw quadrilaterals (or triangles) with particular properties. Is it possible to fill the game grid?
-
problemEqual equilateral triangles
Can you make a regular hexagon from yellow triangles the same size as a regular hexagon made from green triangles ? -
problemIsosceles seven
Is it possible to find the angles in this rather special isosceles triangle?
-
problemTriangle midpoints
You are only given the three midpoints of the sides of a triangle. How can you construct the original triangle?
-
problemOf all the areas
Can you find a general rule for finding the areas of equilateral triangles drawn on an isometric grid?
