Set B - Level 1-2- 2D Visualization- Homework

Pdf Summary

The document provides a series of math visualization problems from the Math Kangaroo competition, Level 1-2, along with their solutions. Here are the problems and the respective answers:<br /><br />1. **MK 2014 #9**: The problem involves determining the final destination of an ant on a board following a series of arrows (2, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2) starting from home. The correct answer is option A.<br /><br />2. **MK 2021 #17**: Maria constructed a square using four out of five shapes. The task is to identify which shape was not used. The correct answer is option D.<br /><br />3. **MK 2017 #19**: Sepehr has two paper cutouts and is tasked to form a specific shape by combining them. The correct answer is option C.<br /><br />4. A problem asks about the possibility of cutting the remaining part of a square (with the central cell removed) into identical pieces and whether they can form 5-square or 6-square shapes. The answer reveals it is not possible to cut them into 5-square pieces, but it is possible with 6-square pieces.<br /><br />5. **MK 2013 #19**: Ann has a square sheet of paper from which she cuts out as many specified pieces as possible. The answer indicates Ann can cut out a total of 3 pieces.<br /><br />Each problem is designed to test the spatial reasoning and visualization skills of young students, typical of the Math Kangaroo’s challenge approach, which encourages creative and critical thinking in mathematical contexts.
