At the beginning of [Polygons and Polyhedra](https://mathigon.org/course/polygons-and-polyhedra#angles), rounding errors can mean that the four angles in the quadrilateral don't actually add up to 360°. We should probably set the last...
Create an interactive Galton board, where small balls fall down a grid of pegs to form an approximately normal distribution:  Students should have a slider to offset the center...
This will require replacing all uses of `THREE.Geometry` with `THREE.BufferGemetry`…

An interactive component for the [Conic Sections course](https://mathigon.org/course/circles/conic-sections#ellipses), that allows students to draw an ellipse using a virtual pencil and a rope that is connected to two pegs (the foci...
An Angry Birds-style game, that shows how projectiles follow a parabolic path. Preview: https://mathigon.org/course/quadratics/projectiles?preview https://github.com/mathigon/textbooks/blob/master/content/quadratics/components/projectile.ts Students have a slingshot at position (0, 0) and have to hit specific targets at...
An interactive, parabolic mirror, that shows how light from a fixed point is reflected in parallel rays. students can slide the position of the light bulb (to find the focus),...
An interactive simulation that shows how to generate the logistic map. References: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovJcsL7vyrk https://geoffboeing.com/2015/03/chaos-theory-logistic-map/ This should consist of a series of different elements: 1. Two side-by-side coordinate systems, one showing...
An interactive game, where students can play the prisoners' paradox against another player, or the computer. Similar to https://youtu.be/_q4DrUHKC0Q?t=2230 TBD: how to select other users, e.g. can two students play...
