Guest Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Only thing is that this solution is 4x6 and not 6x4 as the problem required. The format is RxC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Brian, Pick it up and turn it 90 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 I'm sorry, perhaps geometry isn't my thing, but I'm not seeing how this slice makes the desired rectangle, could someone post the compleated 4x6 grid as made bythis slice? I am lost as well, I don't see a 6x4 rectangle anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 The wording is wrong. The jagged cut is not a "slice". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Such a wonderful thing the Internet. Instead of nitpicking family and friends, now we can nitpick everyone on the entire planet! Enough already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I solved it Josiah's way which I agree was easier so here's the cut with the two colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I solved it Josiah's way which I agree was easier so here's the cut with the two colors Oh I read the directions too quickly.. I thought they said 2 cuts not 2 sections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 6x4 Rectangle - Back to the Geometry Puzzles Slice the picture into 2 sections (Edit: jagged cut) from which you could make a rectangle 6x4 squares. 6x4 Rectangle - solution Look at the solution and imagine picking up the piece on the right side. Turn the piece over then fit it into the bottom of the remaining piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I solved it Josiah's way which I agree was easier so here's the cut with the two colors Technically this works since one slice can be done by not taking the blade off the paper and outlining the two pieces with one stroke or "slice" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) cant you cut it from the point corner to the other point corner in a straight line, then slide the bottom left up, joining it at the top of the other half therefore giving you a skew 4 by 6 Edited October 1, 2009 by Pieter :-?

You have to count the half squares and sum them with the complete sqares in the same line to make it sence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I can say there is a lot of solutions to this one, but wouldn't it be the easiet to show the solution like this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Hockeyislife19, I don't see how your slices would make a rectangle. It could make a bowtie but not a rectangle D: So... Yea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 29, 2011 Report Share Posted May 29, 2011 The 2nd solution by josiah47 doesn't work. You can't make the green portion without cutting the piece into 3. It works fine, if you fold the smaller piece along the bias, as shown. Which is how I solved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
