Here's another: To make the hexagonal pattern you would need equilateral triangles, but the sample seems to be only an isoceles triangle (root(5), root(5), 2). How do they get them to fit. BTW: Not even Rhomb 1 deserves to be called a Rhombus. The shape is much better known as a Diamond. RÃ´ _________________________________ My favourite question is "Why?". My second favourite is "Why not?"
