my score this morning was 4.22. I don't see how these guys are getting such incredibly low scores, like the 0.53 listed today. Maybe they put a ruler up to the screen! Ha!

thats possible they are cheating...

I have gotten down to .1 units

my best ones are circle centers and worst is triangle centers

My best seems to also be with the circle centers and with finding the point of convergence of the three lines. The parallelograms give me the most trouble.

(Heck, I even had to look up how to spell parallelogram!)

Thanks hanklin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you too.

I can get 0.0 on the circle and right angle but i still do not get the parrallelogram thing. Why i am not a rocket scientist perhaps. Why would anyone have to know a parallelogram for a job? what job actually uses a parallelogram and I think I just took the forum record for using that word. And my first two scores were in the 28 and 38 level. I had no clue what the convergence was until I asked my daughter, didn't know about the bisections etc. Just call me a doof its okay I can take it.

7.75, it's interesting though, I did better when the diagrams were rotated differently.

Here's another game by the same guy:

It's kind of like those little pocket games from when we were kids where you had to move the letters around the board to make words.
