Guess My Rule....If you know Geometry!
One of the simplest, and yet deepest, ways to explore your knowledge of geometry is to play a game called Guess My Rule. It's simple. You put three or four polygons that follow a certain rule inside a circle and a couple that do not follow the rule outside of the circle. Then, you have someone "Guess My Rule".
So, what do think my rule is? Please don't say "polygons with less than five sides". While, the shapes inside the circle do have less than five sides (the ones on the outside do as well), my rule is a bit more complex :-}
Would you like a hint?? Well, I always investigate polygons by looking at their sides and angels.
