If this was half right, then the otehr half is because a round cover cannot fall through its hole. if it were square and it was diaginal to its hole it would fall in.

Number 2 - 21 handshakes is correct, well done

You're now fully right about No. 13 too

Which half of this is correct as technically, they both are...

Yeah....you're right!!!

The answer i've got for it states "It cannot fall though the hole like a square one could and it can be easily moved by rolling"

But, technically, Bannedbiker gave 3 correct reasons......never mind
