Visual thinking

 in this puzzle the objective is to find the total number of triangles that the cat is comprised of. my friend went with the approach of out lining the triangles, but that got a little confusing for her. i went with marking each triangle with a 1 and added another if the triangle was used twice, such as the ones in the cats tail.




This puzzle was a lot harder, my friend again tried to draw outlines of stars but found out quickly that there was no apparent star. i went with shading in triangles that i thought would make a star but i really count not find the star. but than we both started to think that the star would be on its side or in some other orientation that was not the same as indicated. focusing more on vertical lines instead of diagonal lines we found the star in the bottom left corner. this one was hard because of the miss leading instructioms.
