For several years now I’ve taught a three-week course on making artglass windows. After learning the basic technique, I ask each student to research a math-related topic and illustrate it with an artglass window. This year’s group did exceptionally good work! The projects ranged from perennial favorites like the Pythagorean Theorem and tessellations to some new topics – tesseracts, Borromean Rings, and Johnson’s Circle Theorem.
Pictures of their projects are below:
-
- Lazenby: Sierpinski Triangle
-
- Jenkins: Properties of Parallel Lines and Transversals
-
- Webber: Borromean Rings
-
- Johnson: Angle Bisector Theorem
-
- Horner: Circle Inscribed in a Triangle
-
- Harrison: Exterior Angles in a Polygon
-
- Cobb: Fibonacci Numbers
-
- Lund: Congruent Angles Formed by Parallel Lines and a Transversal
-
- Howard: The Four-Color Theorem
-
- Draughn: Circle Inscribed in a Triangle
-
- Nutter: Tesseract
-
- Bennett: The Golden Ratio
-
- Hulme: Parallel Planes
-
- Boyd: Co-Eutrignon Theorem
-
- Farrington: Pythagorean Theorem
-
- Compton: Sierpinski Triangle
-
- Burkart: Exterior Angles of a Polygon
-
- Trabue: Johnson’s Circle Theorem
-
- McCarthy: Tessellation
-
- Triplett: Midpoint of Hypotenuse Properties
