Abstract
Websites and focus interest groups are a good source
for interesting problems.But it’s rarely that one gets
down to solving these; more often they go into a
to-do list. We hope that the solution presented here will
encourage you to try more of these.
Look at the steps of the process: visualisation, definition of the problem, connection to known formulas and then
good old mathematical processing. Problem solved!
Here is a challenging problem in mensuration.
It was posed in the LinkedIn group “Math, Math
Education, Math Culture” by one of the members,
Robert Lewis.
