Maths Coursework As part of my G.C.S.E Maths we had to do a piece of coursework on connect four winning lines. I'm going to start my investigation with a 4x4 because it is the smallest possible winning line in a connect 4 game. I will then move onto a 5x5 grid, hopefully after that I could predict a 6x6. After completing square grids I will move onto rectangles. The data I will need to know is the area of a full size connect four grid (6x7) and that you can only go in a straight line of a 4 counter horizontally, vertically and diagonally. I think that I have found a pattern, which will enable me to predict a 6x6 grid to find the winning line Grid size h v d Total 6x6 3x6 3x6 2x9 54 Grid size h v d total 4x4 1x4 1x4 2x1 10 5x5 2x5 2x5 2x4 18 6x6 3x6 3x6 2x9 54 As you can see the h,v,d all have a pattern H Box The horizontal box has a pattern of plus three values...
