Rangoli: Triangular arrangement of rhombuses in hexagonal patterns - 2
Created by jkmrao on 2011-10-10,

Earlier I gave patterns for three and five rhombuses at the base of an equilateral triangle. Today I am giving a hexagonal arrangement of one to seven rhombuses in an equilateral triangle. These are rotated at 60 degree intervals to get the whole figure. This has two lines as seen on the left. In the middle is the starting motif. On the right is the picture obtained with all the three patterns (two given earlier together with today's). This has fourteen lines and four colours to get the hexagonal symmetry. Enjoy!

Rangoli: Triangular arrangement of rhombuses in hexagonal patterns
Created by jkmrao on 2011-10-06,

Earlier, I gave patterns of squares in a right angled triangle arranged as squares. Today I am giving hexagonal patterns of rhombuses (two back-to-back equilateral triangles) in equilateral triangles. The figure on the right gives the pattern with three rhombuses at the base. The figure on the left gives the pattern with five such rhombuses. The basic motifs are also shown separately. Enjoy! Regards - mOhana
