How do you use 12 toothpicks to make 6 equal size boxes?
You can arrange them into a cube to make the 6 faces of the cube, and the 12 toothpicks making up the 12 edges of the cube.
How do you make five triangles with ten toothpicks?
You can make 5 triangles out of 9 toothpicks. With 6 toothpicks, make a large triangle with 2 toothpicks for each side. Now, take individual toothpicks, and make a smaller triangle inside the larger one by joining the midpoints of the sides of the previous triangle. (The vertices of the smaller triangle are the midpoints of the sides of the larger one).
Why does 6 toothpicks make a triangular pyramid?
Because a triangular pyramid has 6 edges
How many toothpicks are required to form the large square with 6 toothpicks on a side?
24 toothpicks.
How many toothpicks are needed to make a 2 triangles?
5 or 6 Depending on what shape you are thinking of
How do you make 6 squares using 12 toothpicks?
You can arrange them to make a cube.12 edges, 6 faces.
How do you arrange to 12 toothpicks into 6 identical squares?
Use them to form the edges of a cube.

How many rectangles can you make out of 12 toothpicks?
2 rectangles. Put two toothpicks on 2 sides and one on the other side, and that uses 6 toothpicks and if you make another rectangle like that you make 2 rectangles.
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 do you use 10 toothpicks to make 3 congruent squares?
Since every square has 4 sides and you only have 10 toothpicks, obviously you can't have the squares be separate. You will need exactly 2 toothpicks to overlap. Once you realize that, there are two shapes that are possible and can be rotated to make a total of 6 different solutions. A straight line (vertical or horizontal): = = = | | | | = = = Or an L-shape (forwards, backwards, and upside-down forwards and backwards): = | | = = | | | = = Sorry that these don't look quite right, the formatting is getting screwed up.

How many sides if you would have totaled the sides in 6 triangles and 3 squares?
6 triangles is 18 and 3 squares is 12 18 +12 ------- 30
