It is extremely sad just how much pleasure being able to solve a maths problem presented to an 11 year old gives me. I literally feel like some kind of genius.... the eleven year old could not solve it and I enjoyed being able to offer hints to point him in the right direction. It was great. I felt like a star pupil when I pointed out my glee to the teacher at the end of the lesson. Marvellous.
So now, just so you can join in with the pathetic pleasure and find out if you too are smarter than an 11 year old. Here is the puzzle...
By removing 4 of the matches make 4 equilateral triangles.Good Luck.
