This section includes eight problems to which the journal invites readers to respond. Problem topics include angles in alternate segments, pentominoes, a new triangle of numbers, cricket scores, symmetrical pentagons, inequalities, a pythagorean dissection, and magic squares. (MDH)

A mult tile is a set of polygons each of which can be dissected into smaller polygons similar to the original set of polygons. Using a recursive LOGO method that requires solutions to various geometry and trigonometry problems, dissections of mult tiles are carried out repeatedly to produce tile patterns. (MDH)

Examined are the three regular tessellations and derived semiregular tessellations whose regular polygons meet at common vertices. Included are BASIC computer program listings that explore the various combinations of regular polygons that can form regular or semiregular tessellations. (JJK)

Presents activities to create designs with different arrangements of square tiles, which gives students an opportunity to make conjectures about perimeter and to make convincing arguments to justify those conjectures. Includes worksheets. (MKR)
