Opposite Corners-coursework "Multiply the figures in opposite corners of the square and find the difference between the two products. Try this for more 2 by 2 squares what do you notice?" Investigate! In this investigation I will research various squares and rectangles within selected grids such as 10 by 10, 11 by 11 and so forth. I will find patterns between the differences and the squares and rectangles within the grids. By the end of this investigation my aim is to achieve a formula that will connect and link the shape within the grid whether it is a square, rectangle etc. to the size of the grid itself. If I have time I may possibly go into 3 Dimensions and investigate the addition of the next dimension and see how this will affect the 2D work so far and how it can be linked. To start off with I will take a 2 by 2...
