2. Most Pleasing Rectangle

The students should independently move the vertex to get the rectangular shape that they find most pleasing and then divide the height by the base (10) to get a ratio to share with the teacher. The teacher should then use the statistics tools in GeoGebra to investigate these ratios. Do they come near the golden ratio (or its reciprocal) as often claimed?
