If you have 12 toothpicks that are put in four squares that are connected How do you move 2 to make 7 squares?
Take two toothpicks that create an outside corner. Cross them like a + inside one of the remaining boxes. Count the new four smaller boxes inside it as 4, the one they are formed in as 5, and the two untouched boxes as 6 and 7. (The trick is to remember to count the larger box the 4 are formed in.)
How can you remove 4 toothpicks from 16 toothpicks to get 4 congruent triangles?
Fuor toothpicks from 16 leave 12 which, by coincidence (?) is exactly enough for four equilateral triangles!
