Before Nov 6 we didn’t have a match stick puzzle for quite a while, so let’s have one again.
1) How many rectangles are there in this square?**/*****
2) How many rectangles are there in an mxn rectangle?**/*****
The previous puzzle can be generalized from 3×3 to any size, an m x n rectangle. How many rectangles are there in an mxn rectangle?
