Question 4
Two squares put on top of each other can make 9 regions (see figure).
(a) How many regions at most can be constructed from 3 squares?
(b) Using 4 squares, construct as many regions as possible with the grid transparent paper, scissors and glue. Put the result in the envelope.
(c) How many regions at most can be constructed from 4 squares?
The practical construction in (b) remains an activity. The worked example is a model to guide or check your own construction.
