Azada chapter 3 matchsticks

i'm stuck on this........help please!

Not quite sure how to explain the solution. But, you need to move the matches so as to form a six sided circle with 6 pieces of pie--kinda like the playing piece for a trivial pursuit game. The points of each triangle meet in the middle. Hope this helps!

DENA try to immagine the fish in a mirror or try that and they will reverse ,that is what I done.

Another matchstick will come up.a good trick also is draw it out first ,hope this helps.

Go to www.learning-tree.org.uk/stickpuzzles/stick_puzzles.htm, each puzzle may have a different solution than what solves the one in Azada, but you get an idea on how to move the sticks. Just click on the "puzzle solution" and it shows you the moves.

Dena,

If, you are talking about the Matchstick puzzle, of getting the Fish to look in the other direction, it is very frustrating.

The puzzle looks so easy, until you try to move the matchsticks in the opposite direction and they will NOT stay in position, right?

The 'trick' to doing this puzzle is to place the matchsticks toward the 'bottom of the page', then they will hold their position and the Fish will be looking in the opposite direction.

Hope, this helps you and others with this puzzle.

i went to lizzieks photobucket site and after 10 tries got it on the first try in 40 sec i know u can private message lizzie k and she will give u the link i went to photonucket then typed in lizzieks photos then choose azada them matchsticks believe me it helped

I have posted all of the Azada Matchstick solutions in my photobucket.

To find these pictures and videos:
Do a Google search for Photobucket. Go to the main Photobucket site . On that page there is an Image Search box. Put the two words lizziek photos in that box and search.

It will come back and say “No matches were found to your search request. Go to the bottom of the page and it will say: Are you looking for the Photobucket user lizziek photos? Click here to see this user’s album.”Click on that and you will be on my main page.

Look on the left of the page and you will see the game album names. Click on the album Azada. Then in the Azada album look on the left to see the Azada specific album for the matchstick puzzles. Choose the album you want.

I hope you find it and that the pictures help you. Good luck and enjoy the game.
