    When a polyomino is equals to its perimeter it is said to be? - ProProfs

    When a polyomino is equals to its perimeter it is said to be?

    • Equable

    • Balanced

    • Equilibrium

    • Admissible

    Correct Answer
    A. Equable
    Explanation
    A polyomino is a shape made by joining squares of the same size edge to edge. When a polyomino is equal to its perimeter, it means that the number of squares in the shape is equal to the total length of its edges. In other words, the area of the shape is equal to the perimeter. This property is known as being "equable".

    Which of the following depicts the graphs of vertices and edges of polyominoes? - ProProfs

    Which of the following depicts the graphs of vertices and edges of polyominoes?

    • SquareGraphs

    • Polygraphs

    • Percolation theory

    • Polyamino edge

    Correct Answer
    A. SquareGraphs
    Explanation
    The correct answer is SquareGraphs because polyominoes are shapes made up of squares, and the graphs of vertices and edges of these shapes can be represented using square grids or graphs.

    Free polyominoes are said to be distinct in what scenario?   - ProProfs

    Free polyominoes are said to be distinct in what scenario?  

    • When there is no graph at the edge of the Polyominies

    • When there is a rigid transformation of each other

    • When none is a rigid transformation of anther other

    • When there are two sides to the Polyominoes

    Correct Answer
    A. When none is a rigid transformation of anther other
    Explanation
    Free polyominoes are said to be distinct when none of them can be obtained from a rigid transformation of another. In other words, each polyomino has a unique shape that cannot be transformed into the shape of another polyomino by rotations, reflections, or translations. This means that every polyomino is different and cannot be made identical to another through any rigid transformation.

    Polyominoes can distinguished by employing how many methods? - ProProfs

    Polyominoes can distinguished by employing how many methods?

    • 2

    • 3

    • 4

    • 5

    Correct Answer
    A. 3
    Explanation
    Polyominoes can be distinguished by employing three methods. The first method is by counting the number of squares in the polyomino. Each polyomino has a different number of squares, which allows for differentiation. The second method is by observing the shape and arrangement of the squares within the polyomino. Different polyominoes can have different shapes and arrangements, making them distinguishable. The third method is by considering the orientation of the polyomino. Polyominoes can be rotated or flipped, resulting in different orientations and therefore different polyominoes. These three methods combined allow for the distinction of polyominoes.

    An example of a board game that uses polyominoes is? - ProProfs

    An example of a board game that uses polyominoes is?

    • Backgammon

    • Monopoly

    • Chess

    • Blokus

    Correct Answer
    A. Blokus
    Explanation
    Blokus is an example of a board game that uses polyominoes. In Blokus, players take turns placing their pieces on the board, with each piece being made up of multiple connected squares. The goal is to strategically place your pieces in a way that maximizes your territory while blocking your opponents from doing the same. Polyominoes, which are shapes made up of squares connected edge-to-edge, are the fundamental building blocks of the game. Therefore, Blokus is a board game that specifically utilizes polyominoes in its gameplay.

    When a polyomino contains a square, known as the root, such that every other square can be reached by movements of up or right one square, without leaving the polyomino it is known to be? - ProProfs

    When a polyomino contains a square, known as the root, such that every other square can be reached by movements of up or right one square, without leaving the polyomino it is known to be?

    • Admissible

    • Polarised

    • Smooth

    • Directed

    Correct Answer
    A. Directed
    Explanation
    A polyomino is known to be "directed" when it contains a square, known as the root, from which every other square can be reached by movements of up or right one square, without leaving the polyomino. This means that there is a clear directionality in the arrangement of the squares, with all squares being reachable in a specific path starting from the root square.

    Video games such as Tetris is uses the seven one-sided Polyominomes called?

    • Tetrominoes

    • Petominoes

    • Dectominoes

    • Octominoes

    Correct Answer
    A. Tetrominoes
    Explanation
    Tetrominoes are the correct answer because they are the seven one-sided polyominoes used in the video game Tetris. Polyominoes are geometric shapes formed by joining squares together, and tetrominoes specifically consist of four squares arranged in different configurations. In Tetris, players must manipulate and fit these tetrominoes together to complete lines and score points. Therefore, tetrominoes are the correct term for the shapes used in Tetris.

    • 1930s

    • 1940s

    • 1970s

    Correct Answer
    A. 1900s
    Explanation
    Polyominoes have been used in popular puzzles since the late 1900s. This means that they have been used for a long time, dating back to the early 20th century. The use of polyominoes in puzzles has been popular for many decades, and they continue to be used in various puzzle games and challenges even today.
