Cuisenaire rods illustrating the factors of ten A demonstration the first pair of amicable numbers, (220,284). Cuisenaire rods are mathematics learning aids for pupils that provide an interactive, hands-on [1] way to explore mathematics and learn mathematical concepts, such as the four basic arithmetical operations, working with fractions and finding divisors.
Similar to the Geodreieck, a number of other protractor triangle types exist for navigation purposes. Various designs are named navigation (protractor) triangle, nautical navigational triangle, nautical set square, Portland (navigational) triangle or Portland protractor triangle, Kent-type triangle, Inoue-type A/B nautical triangle or plotting triangle, course triangle, yachtsmen triangle, and ...
Christopher Danielson developed a new set of blocks, called Twenty-First Century Pattern Blocks. [8] The rhombus in this set has the same size as the blue rhombus in the traditional set. The dart and the 30°–60°–90° triangle have the same area, while the kite and the hexagon are twice that area.
Twelve key lengths of a triangle are the three side lengths, the three altitudes, the three medians, and the three angle bisectors. Together with the three angles, these give 95 distinct combinations, 63 of which give rise to a constructible triangle, 30 of which do not, and two of which are underdefined. [13]: pp. 201–203
The goal is to arrange the squares into a 4 by 6 grid so that when two squares share an edge, the common edge is the same color in both squares. In 1964, a supercomputer was used to produce 12,261 solutions to the basic version of the MacMahon Squares puzzle, with a runtime of about 40 hours.
Cool Math Games (branded as Coolmath Games) [a] is an online web portal that hosts HTML and Flash web browser games targeted at children and young adults. Cool Math Games is operated by Coolmath LLC and first went online in 1997 with the slogan: "Where logic & thinking meets fun & games.".
The example shows trisection of any angle θ > 3π / 4 by a ruler with length equal to the radius of the circle, giving trisected angle φ = θ / 3 . Angle trisection is a classical problem of straightedge and compass construction of ancient Greek mathematics .
A magic triangle or perimeter magic triangle [1] is an arrangement of the integers from 1 to n on the sides of a triangle with the same number of integers on each side, called the order of the triangle, so that the sum of integers on each side is a constant, the magic sum of the triangle.
