Visualising and representing

How many different symmetrical shapes can you make by shading triangles or squares?

Polygons drawn on square dotty paper have dots on their perimeter (p) and often internal (i) ones as well. Find a relationship between p, i and the area of the polygons.

Given an equilateral triangle inside an isosceles triangle, can you find a relationship between the angles?

Points P, Q, R and S each divide the sides AB, BC, CD and DA respectively in the ratio of 2 : 1. Join the points. What is the area of the parallelogram PQRS in relation to the original rectangle?

Rectangles are considered different if they vary in size or have different locations. How many different rectangles can be drawn on a chessboard?

A magician took a suit of thirteen cards and held them in his hand face down. Every card he revealed had the same value as the one he had just finished spelling. How did this work?

Imagine an infinitely large sheet of square dotty paper on which you can draw triangles of any size you wish (providing each vertex is on a dot). What areas is it/is it not possible to draw?

In how many ways can you fit all three pieces together to make shapes with line symmetry?

A group activity using visualisation of squares and triangles.

I'm thinking of a number. My number is both a multiple of 5 and a multiple of 6. What could my number be?
