Maths homework: 13th October 2017

This 4 by 4 grid is divided into two identical shapes.
Each shape has the same area.
How many more ways can you find of dividing the grid into two identical shapes by colouring the squares two different colours

Think about these questions as you are doing it:

Q. How do you know if two parts are identical?
Q. How are you finding different solutions? Do you have a system?


Challenge:

Would you be able to do this with a 5 × 5 square?


Explain your answer. (The grid needs to have even number of rows and columns to avoid half squares.)
