Eyeball.

Try and judge various geometric problems, the closer you get to the actual results the better. Results from my first game:

Your inaccuracy by category:

Code:
Parallelogram   6.0   4.2   7.1
Midpoint   5.0   2.2   3.2

I'm gonna have to work out what my score would have been without that 58.3 for the Triangle centre. I misread the question and thought it meant equidistant from the corners.

//edit: Ouch! If I'd gotten 2.5 instead of 58.3 my average would have been 2.84 :(

Equidistant from the corners is the same as equidistant from the edges isn't it?

3.30 for me.

I kind of rushed through it though. I'm awesome at right angles.

Nah. See below - on the left is what it meant, on the right is what I thought it meant first time around - i.e. the point at which if you draw a line coming from each corner, bisecting the two angles of it, all three lines are equal in length. - almost certainly not accurate in my little drawing there, but you should get the point.
