First Puzzle for Geometers

Geometry_Blog_Problem_1You can do this puzzle, Geometers!  Just click on the image & you’ll see the whole problem.   Feel free to ask “yes” or “no” questions regarding this problem right on the blog, but nothing else.  The first to e-mail a correct and thorough solution to me at ljenkins@district158.org  (you may also bring your solution to school but you run the risk of waiting and perhaps losing your chance…yikes!) receives 5 math tickets & candy (Plus the prestige of knowing you’re a geometry genius, of course!).  This post will be up for one week (until the end of the day 12/6) and then a solution will be posted.  Feel free to print it out to work on it.  It’ll boggle you for a little while…
