Guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 Did anyone else think of a solution of roman numerals? I dont really have time to make a diagram, but if you move the 2nd line from the left to form an X with the first line on the left, and move the 3rd line from the leftslightly ot the left, it makes XI^II Its a bit messy, but it works. -SujayRamani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
