Pyramid puzzle
From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
A pyramid puzzle is a mechanical puzzle (assembly puzzle) consisting of two or more component pieces which fit together to create a pyramid.[1][2]
History[edit]
No sole inventor. American pioneers’s children did pay with them though.[citation needed]
Solutions[edit]
- Two-piece pyramid puzzles: A regular pyramid is not possible in this case. Instead, we can only form a 4 faced tetrahedron pyramid.[3]
To do this, make the square faces face each other and twist one upright to complete the four faced tetrahedronic pyramid.[4]
- Four-piece pyramid puzzles:[5][6] Join the four identical pieces in pairs so that the smallest triangular faces meet. Turn the squares to face each other and bring them together. This will leave a square face on the two resulting pieces. With the square sides of the blocks facing each other, twist one piece upright to complete the pyramid.[citation needed]
