Cross-number chaos — Happy Triangular Year!

If you find mathematics offensive, please click the back button now.

Mathematical Maelström is a rather tricky cross-number puzzle, in which the clues take the form of equations.

• “Across” and “Down” are not specified as each letter only corresponds to one answer.
• No number begins with zero.
• A calculator could come in handy!

Below is the latest Mathematical Maelström puzzle to celebrate 2016, a triangular year! The first person to solve the puzzle correctly wins a trip for two to Bermuda (only kidding). If you’d like to print it out (which you probably will), please click here.
