Terrific Triangles 1.5.2
Terrific Triangles - basic math facts practice using fact families more>>
In all cases the triangle presents two parts of a fact family and the player must determine the missing third part. The sum and product always appear at the top of the triangle. The addends and factors always go in the two lower corners.
Student mode allows individual facts practice with a running score for correct answers. The player may select difficulty and whether to play against a timer.
Teacher mode allows for group play.
Students are presented with a problem and the timer spins one revolution. Then a student name appears and the timer spins again. The student whos name is shown tries to call out the answer before the timer finishes. We like this system of showing the student name after the first spin because, if the time is set short enough, students are encouraged to pay attention even before knowing whether they will need to answer. If they wait until they see their name (or a neighbor tells them to look!) it may be too late to calculate.
Press the "Return" or "Enter" key for a new problem to display. The empty corner will be random. If you wish to select which corner will be blank, click that corner with the mouse instead of using the keyboard. Student mode may be used right away. Generally teacher mode requires that names be entered first. The names and settings will remain saved between uses.
Enhancements:
- Added support for Intel processors
- General speed increase
- Fixed problem where timer might freeze during extended use
- User-selected ranges of multiplication facts are now followed accurately
- Minor cosmetic changes

Triangle Solver 1.0 is a powerful program that makes it quick and easy to solve any defined triangle effortlessly. more>>
Triangle Solver 1.0 is a powerful program that makes it quick and easy to solve any defined triangle effortlessly.
Triangle Solver automatically solves any defined triangle. Simply insert the information you know about a triangle, and Triangle Solver tells you what you don't know. Triangle solver is not simply a calculator - Its intelligent. As well as knowing formulas it also knows when to employ them. This makes Triangle Solver easy to use and invaluable even for a math novice.
Triangle Solver can solve triangles defined by SSS, SAS, ASA, or even solve both solutions for ambiguous situations of SSA. Basically, if a triangle has a solution, Triangle Solver can find it. Even if the triangle has no solution, Triangle solver will tell you why.
Bermuda Triangle 1.0
Bermuda Triangle - Simple, mildly addicting arcade inspired game more>>
The object of this game is to enclose the enemies (the little moving arrow thingies) in a triangle. To create a triangle use the mouse to click and place the vertices (corners).
If an enemy hits the side before you have completed the triangle it will shatter and you will loose a life. When you loose a life the number of enemies on screen returns to 3.
You gain 100 points for destroying one enemy in your triangle, 200 for the second one, 400 for the third and so on. It is advantageous to destroy as many as you can at once.

The Triangle Puzzle 1.0
The Triangle Puzzle gives you a good time enjoying an exciting, challenging, animated puzzle game with sound and hints! more>>
The Triangle Puzzle 1.0 gives you a good time enjoying an exciting, challenging, animated puzzle game with sound and hints! Features over 70 sound snippets and AI which can dynamically search any position to see if its solvable!
To play, you remove a starting peg from any hole by single-clicking it, then repeatedly single-click an arbitrary peg and then jump either horizontally or diagonally over an occupied hole into an empty hole (by single-clicking it), thereby removing the peg you jumped over. You repeat this process until there are no moves left.
The object of the game is to end up with exactly one peg. Having trouble solving the puzzle? No worries, because you can undo and redo your moves as well as get hints by checking the "Is there a solution from this position?" checkbox, and/or pressing the [Hint] button to have the program suggest the next move which leads toward a solution (if there is one).
The programs AI can dynamically search from "any'' position to determine whether the puzzle is solvable or not! When the animated pegs blink, one of over seventy fun sound snippets is played using samples of various chimes, bells, instruments and other tones!

Angle Doubling 1.0 is known as a free yet very useful program taken from a CD-ROM collection of over 200 mathematics puzzles, available on the developer's Web site. Developed by a veteran teacher, these visually-oriented puzzle games have a simple interface and are designed to provide math problems in context to middle-school (grades five through nine) students.
In this particular program, students write and solve simple algebra problems, then manipulate the vertices of an on-screen triangle so that the triangle matches given information about its angles. You can view a screenshot of this program by clicking here.
TRIGger mini 1.2.3
TRIGger mini - Visualize trigonometric values with a dynamic geometric figure more>> TRIGger mini - Visualize trigonometric values with a dynamic geometric figure
Displays the "Complete Triangle" figure, whose segments represent the six trigonometric functions (sine, tangent, secant, cosine, cotangent, cosecant) associated with an angle.
Dragging the mouse within the TRIGger mini window changes the angle, and consequently the shape of the Complete Triangle, helping build an intuitive understanding of the behavior of the trig functions.
Main features:
- Individual display toggle for each trig value
- Scaled-up image when only sine and cosine are visible
- TRIGger mini also has an option for measuring the angles Radian.
- "Pieces of pi" (radians as multiple of pi) angle measure option
- "Auto-spin mode" via shift-click.
Enhancements
- Minor tweaks for Mac OS X 10.5 ("Leopard") compatibility
