There was no explanation on how and why they chosed to use triangle to a puzzle.
I spent some time trying to solve the three games, and was not solving it. Over
and Over trying different ways jumping over one ball over the other, and for
some reason I was not solveing the tri puzzle. I learned from my class that not
all puzzles can be solved. I thought this web page was very fun and mind
boggling. I am willing to spend more time to try and get only one ball left on
the triangle. Overall I thought this was one of many enhanced teaching styles in
the math. I give it two thumbs up.

puzzle. I love the challenge the 3 different puzzles instigated. I wish there
would have been an article to go along with this so that they might tell us the
mathematical point behind the strategy. I tried all 3 puzzles for about 10
minutes EACH, and never once won! I did get down to 2 balls left, but then I
forgot how I did that and could not get back to that number again!
Technical Remarks:
was not additional information provided except for the puzzles themselves, but
it was a nice break from the ordinary reading. It is nice to be able to
interact and try different solutions to a VERY seemingly impossible problem.
Again though, I really would like to know how to solve the problem - any
suggestions??
