Question 8. Which pinwheel can Jorge build with these three rods? Let's start off by looking at the center rod, the one with the two green  triangles facing the same way, and see which of the potential solutions has a rod like this. If we take a look at solution A, we see that there is a rod with two  green triangles, but they are facing opposite directions. This cannot be the answer. If we look at pinwheel B, we see the same issue. When we take a look at  pinwheel C, we see that none of the rods have two triangles on them. This cannot be the solution. And when we look at pinwheel D, we see that once again there  is a rod with two green triangles, but they're facing opposite directions. This leaves us only with option E, so that will be the correct answer.
