Geometry Puzzles
Slice the picture into 2 sections from which you could make a rectangle 6x4 squares.
Slice the picture into 2 sections from which you could make an 8x8 square.
Slice the picture into 2 identical/symmetrical sections.
Slice the square into 4 identical sections, so that in each section there is 1 caterpillar with its leaf. One caterpillar will not have a leaf, she is taking a diet.
Slice the rectangle with a hole in its centre into 2 sections so that you could make a square 8x8 - virgin (without that hole in the centre).
Slice the picture into 4 identical sections.
Divide a paper into 8 sections and write numbers on it according to the picture. Your job is to fold it where the lines are so that the numbers are sorted (number 1 will be on the top, 2 under it,..., and the last one will be 8).
Modification: It is the same objective, just the numbers have changed.
Write the numbers from 1 to 8 into the squares, so that the squares with consecutive numbers do not touch (neither edges nor corners).
Where does the hole in second triangle come from (the partitions are the same)?
The same principle - moving the same parts - allows creating objects 64, 65 and 63 squares big. This geometric fallacy is also known as '64 = 65 Geometry Paradox'.
The five images below represent five views (from five of its six sides) of a solid object. This object has been assembled by gluing together several identical small cubes so that at least one face of each small cube is totally adherent to a face of another contiguous small cube. Each black line shown represents a side of the object that is perpendicular to the plane of this page. Draw the sixth view of the object and calculate how many small cubes were used in the construction of the object, as well as its respective colors.
Several identical cubes are fused together to form a solid object. Given the following five external views of such an object, draw the sixth external view. Clockwise or counterclockwise rotations of the sixth view are acceptable, but a mirror image (the sixth side as viewed from inside the solid) is not acceptable.
The five figures shown below represent the appearance of a solid, opaque object as seen from five of its six sides. Each line shown depicts a side of the object that is perpendicular to the plane of this page. The object was constructed by gluing together a number of identical cubes so that at least one face of each added cube precisely and entirely covers and is everywhere contiguous with one face of a previous cube. Draw the sixth view of the object.
