Im so glad I studied all that math--NOT!
#1
I was a math wiz. Almost became a math teacher. Remember all that a2 plus b2 equals c2 stuff. That was just the beginning, then there was high school and college trig and calculus.....
I am making a Cathedral Windows with a rectangle. Of course, I do not want to make it the two sizes that are in the book. She gives you a drawing and says to map it out on graph paper unless you are a math geek.
I didnt have a printer that worked at the house and math geek that I WAS ONCE, I just knew I could accomplish this task easily, no lazy old graph paper for me!
Last night, I worked on it until 11:45 pm. Felt like a high schooler doing home work. Of course I have no calculator with cosines and square roots.
What am I doing this morning. Drawing it on graph paper! I will have it done in ten minutes!
Should have taken home ec not calculus in high school!

This is from Lynne Edwards book. You can look it up on Amazon. The rectangles work just like the squares only it gives you the ability to make abstract shapes.
Yes there is an app. My old tablet you could draw it and cut and paste it. But the tablet died and my home computer doesnt have many programs on it. Got to the office and could have done it on the computer but just drew it on paper.

All I remember from high school math is "Oscar Had A Heap Of Apples". I can tell you the formulas for sine, cosine & tangent. Just don't ask me what to do with them! And I love my graph paper, that's fun.
