Fruity Totals
In this interactivity each fruit has a hidden value. Can you deduce what each one is worth?
Growing Surprises
What's it worth?
There are lots of different methods to find out what the shapes are worth - how many can you find?
Special Numbers
My two digit number is special because adding the sum of its digits to the product of its digits gives me my original number. What could my number be?
Picturing Triangular Numbers
How far does it move?
Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the dot affects the distance it travels at each stage.
Semi-regular Tessellations
Semi-regular tessellations combine two or more different regular polygons to fill the plane. Can you find all the semi-regular tessellations?
Round and round and round
Reflecting Lines
Translating Lines
Diminishing Returns
At least one...
Imagine flipping a coin a number of times. Can you work out the probability you will get a head on at least one of the flips?
Days and Dates
Counting Factors
Impossibilities
Just because a problem is impossible doesn't mean it's difficult...
Legs Eleven
Funny Factorisation
Star Polygons
Draw some stars and measure the angles at their points. Can you find and prove a result about their sum?

The Farmers' Field Boundary

Think of Two Numbers
Square coordinates
A tilted square is a square with no horizontal sides. Can you devise a general instruction for the construction of a square when you are given just one of its sides?
Speeding up, slowing down
Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the dot affects its speed at each stage.
Triangle Numbers
Tower of Hanoi
Opposite vertices
Can you recreate squares and rhombuses if you are only given a side or a diagonal?
Fill Me Up
Can you sketch graphs to show how the height of water changes in different containers as they are filled?
What numbers can we make now?
Imagine we have four bags containing numbers from a sequence. What numbers can we make now?
Quadrilaterals in a Square
Nine Colours
Triangles to Tetrahedra
Cuboids
Efficient cutting
Up and across
Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the dot affects its vertical and horizontal movement at each stage.
Which solids can we make?
Interior angles can help us to work out which polygons will tessellate. Can we use similar ideas to predict which polygons combine to create semi-regular solids?
