T-totals

Introduction

For my T-totals maths coursework I will investigate the relationship

between the T-total and T-number, the T-total and T-number and grid

size and the T-shape in different positions.

Looking at this T-shape drawn on a 9x9 grid,

The total of the numbers inside the T-shape is 2+3+4+12+21=42

This is called the T-total.

The number at the bottom of the shape is the T-number. The T-number

for this shape is 21.

Part 1

For the first part of my coursework I must investigate a relationship

between the T-total and the T-number. To do this I have chosen the

following T-shapes:
