GCSE Math Coursework INTRODUCTION Triminoes is a game similar to dominoes. The game is played using triangular pieces of card. Each card has three numbers on it. Instead of drawing the triangles I will write the three numbers in brackets below. E.g. (000) (001) (002) (011) (012) (022) (111) (112) (122) (222) The aim of this investigation will be to: 1. Investigate the relationship between the number of Triminoe cards in a set and the largest number used in a set. 2. Investigate the relationship between the sum of all numbers on a set of Triminoe cards and the largest number used on the cards. PLANNING These are some of the formulas I will be using in order to complete the tasks: f (n) =an+b (Linear equation) f (n) =an2+bn+c (Quadratic equation) f (n) =an3+bn2+cn+d (Cubic equation) f (n) =an4+bn3+cn2+dn+e (Quartic equation) METHOD 1. First I am going to the number 0 and find out how much different possibilities I can make with the one number, this is obviously one. 2. I will then try...
