Games to build your math intuition for students and professionals of all ages
Vectors i and j form a unit square, and span 2D space. Drag and drop i' and j' to scale, rotate, and flip the unit square- and 2D space- so that the blue point falls on the red. Click solve to see how to get a (non-unique) solution, and help for more intuition.
Find the BasisYou are the blue point trying to catch the red. Every move, a random edge is removed. Try to capture the red point before an edge is removed and the points are separated. Switch to defense mode to try and evade red, and switch to two players to play with a friend.
Catch the PointInput an equation for y' in terms of x and y. The value of y' is the slope at any given point. Write a function so that, given an initial point, the particular solution passes through the two boundary conditions.
Slope Field GameTest your reflexes by collecting as many gold coins as possible while avoiding an increasing number of lasers by jumping over them and phasing through walls.
Laser JumpAn interactive financial calculator for analyzing annuities, loans, bonds, and the time value of money. Adjust parameters to visualize how cash flows are accumulated and discounted over time.
FM CalculatorThe goal is to promote one of your pieces to the opposite end of the board before your opponent. Every move, a triangle can move one square up, down, left or right. Land on an opposing triangle to capture it. Try to find a path to victory while blocking your opponent.
Triangle ChessThe red points are students, and the blue points are Universities. The edge weights represent how well each student would fit at each University. Each University can only accept one student. Highlight the set of edges that maximize the score for everyone involved. Press check to see if your matching is optimal.
