Make a Triangular Pyramid. Place three flat to form the first triangle, then make it into a pyramid with the remaining three. (It's a tetrahedron - a four-sided figure, and all sides are equilateral triangles.)

Just use 3 of those matches or sticks to arrange into a number ' 4 ' and use the 3 left to arrange into an equilateral triangle. Put them next to each other and you'll have ''4 equilateral triangles'' from 6 equal length sticks or matches.

How can you arrange six matches to make eight equilateral triangles-without breaking any of the matches?

Make a square (with four of the matches) and then put an x in the square (with the reamaining two) I'm sorry to spoil your trick; however, the two sticks that are used for the X are not long enough to touch the four corners of the square. In return, I will ask: How can you make 4 equilateral triangles from 6 equal length sticks or matches?

How can you make 4 equilateral triangles with 6 stick when the sticks are already in 2 triangles and you can only move one?

Use three sticks to form a triangle. Use the other three sticks to form an inverted triangle and place it on top of the first. You will have two large triangles and six small ones - eight triangles in all. The shape is also known as the Star of David.

How do you build a pyramid from popsicle sticks?

You need to take some Popsicle sticks and glue them to the size of you're square. Then make 4 triangles. Cut some of the sticks down if needed. When the shapes dry, take 1 triangle and glue it vertically on to 1 side of the square. When you glue the triangles, slant them in so they connect in the middle.
