Family Fridays: “Puzzling with Pentominoes”
Fri Sep 27, 2019
6:30pm to 8:00pm ET
Age: 8 and up
Price: Free
Location:
National Museum of Mathematics
The pentominoes are the twelve geometric figures which can be made by gluing five squares together, edge-to-edge — just think of Tetris-like shapes, but using five squares instead of four. Mathematician and puzzle enthusiast Vince Matsko hosts an evening of intense puzzledom using these deceptively simple shapes.
Tackle a wide range of challenges: easier puzzles may take just a few minutes to solve, but get ready to exercise your brain — the more challenging puzzles may take an hour or more! Thanks to the generous support of Two Sigma, this program is free to attendees.
