Paper Mobile


My mobile features 4 paper triangles, the areas of which were determined through geometric calculations. We set the ratio of the triangles' areas to be 4 : 2 : 1 : 1.  The area (therefore weight) of the biggest triangle equals the area of the other triangles combined. We added weights in the form of magnets to each of the triangles, proportional to their respective area.
