Level 16: triangle is way too isosceles #287

Open andersk opened 10 years ago

In level 16, the default triangle is way too close to being isosceles. Circles AB and AC look identical; they are impossible to distinguish without zooming in by at least 20× or so. Of course, the game knows that it isn’t isosceles, so it doesn’t accept incorrect solutions. But this is really confusing to the player.

This level should use a triangle that looks more scalene. Something closer to 45°:60°:75° or 4:5:6 would be a good choice.
