Paper plane maths

Paper plane maths

Medium wings three times 1 3.3 meters
                                         2 3.0 meters
                                          3 3.9 meters
average throw 3.4

small wings three times     1 2.8 meters
                                          2 4.2 meters
                                          3 1.8 meters
average throw 2.9 meters

large wings three times      1 4.5 meters
                                          2 4.1 meters
                                          3 4.5 meters

  2. Kia ora Sam, You have caried out a thorough mathematical investigation, including recording and analysing the paperplane data. I like the image showing your recordings in the background and you holding the wining plane.
