    No início do século XX, uma das questões que confrontavam os cientistas da época era sobre a possibilidade de se construir aparatos voadores grandes e estáveis o suficiente para levar um homem aos céus e trazê-lo de volta em segurança. Alexander Graham Bell propôs um aparato voador (uma pipa) que, de fato, conseguiu transportar um homem. A ideia de Bell: usar tetraedros regulares como células das estruturas de suas pipas. Nesta atividade apresentamos um roteiro detalhado para a construção das pipas tetraédricas de Alexander Graham Bell com material de baixo custo. A atividade é complementada por modelos virtuais tridimensionais no computador. O assunto é muito apropriado para se explorar questões de contagem, semelhança, proporcionalidade, áreas e volumesEnsino Médio::Matemátic
