Quiz: Are you a good eyeballer?
Here's a visual quiz where you can test your ability to eyeball things. Where's the midpoint? When is the line parallel? You get the idea. I started off horribly but improved enough to get a 2.18. I wonder if taking this quiz every day would help train me, so I'd eventually be able to cut paper and fabric without measuring ever again. Hmm. Somehow I doubt it.

I had 2.35. I must say that's a really good time waster.
I had 3.01 and nailed a 0.0 twice. Alas... my very first answer was so far off that there was no return! LOL! Very interesting indeed!
I must offer a disclosure: Don't attempt this quiz if you can't remember your math. : ) Although the second time I tried it, I googled the terms first and did much better. : p
Wow, 2.18, that's impressive! I managed to get 2.5 on my second time around after I remembered what a parallelogram was. :P My weakest was finding the mid-point of the triangle. The best part about this is that I feel like I might actually be exercising my neurons a bit!
So horrible... 8.33.. :o(
I agree; the triangle is definitely the hardest one. Yes, don't you feel smarter now that you've done it? It's like weight lifting for your brain. I figure I just delayed senility by about 5 minutes by taking that test.
Oops, that was in response to Jacqui. Lilith commented while I was typing. Lillith, I bet you anything that if you did it again your score would improve.
Neat!
That is addictive. My eyeballing skills are nowhere near as good as I thought they were.
That's so cool! I have a problem with the parallelogram, though -- I keep trying to put it in perspective!
very addictive, I think I got a 4 something... but I can level the art on my wall really well :P
3.88 on the second try. I am going back for another!
Determination! Excellent! (Or maybe addiction.)
5.39 for me!! Thanks for sharing.
4.41
that damn parallelogram! i made that 90 degree angle every time almost exactly..
grr - super neat though!
Didn't do so hot... For some reason my "centers" always leans a little to the right. All I have to say is thank goodness for the Align tool in Illustrator/Photoshop or my design skills would be SOL- ha ha! Have a great weekend!
so fun...and so addicting.
wow. well i did terribly compared to you (and apparently compared to the other commenters!) but in the midst of my terrible score, I specialized in Bisecting the angle getting it almost spot on every time!
fun!! i think i didn't do so well because it's been so darn long since geometry class. equidistant to the edges? huh?? :)
This is great! I'm not good at it but getting better fast!
LOL!
Good golly, on my third try I'm still in the 4's! Are you all seriously in the twos?! Good grief! I agree with Sue, I'm not nearly as good as I thought I was!
And indeed it took me a couple of tries before I even understood what they were looking for on equi-distant triangle prompts.
I got a 10.12 and thought to myself "10 - that must be good' - ok, not so much. Maybe I should put my glasses on and try again. :D
Ouch. I thought I was good at this on fabric until I got an 8.06 here on my screen. Must find my eyeglasses and try again later!
Oh dear...even though this was fun I stink at it:(
I'm addicted...
uhh, i really stink at that game. even after 8th try i got only 3,13 but on my first try (got 10,8) i had no idea what the questions were.
i got 4.66 first try. i'd like to beat the person who had 0.88. i'll just have to do it 10 times a day and i'll get there. :D
that was fun!
i got 5.9 or something equally dire! how embarrassing ;)
What a good one! I was a 3 something. Not bad, but not as good as some of you guys!
This is pretty addicting and I'll be bookmarking this! I got a 5.31...I will need to try again when kidos are in school.
I got better over time but my mouse grew a mind of it's own so I couldn't do the test but twice.
10,18
My best was around 4.3. apparently I can't eye ball well.. maybe i'll try again today:)
I loved that! I could definitely spend way too much time on that. I hate measuring things and ALWAYS eyeball. This is good practice. :)
I failed a drafting class due to my eyeballing. He swore up and down I was tracing others drawings. But I wasn't. I wish I had this quiz back then.
this was fun, but i think i would have done better if i paid more attention in geometry...or maybe kindergarten. i forgot what a parallelogram is and what "equidistant" means. ooops.
Ubergeek hubby scored less than 2 on the first go. I *knew* he'd love that link! Thanks for posting it!
i got a 4 something, i need to go for round two now! pretty addicting... math is fun now!
I love that game! It took me about 3 times to understand exactly what I was trying to accomplish though. Haha!
