	Three congruent rectangles		2008-10-27
		From Meagan: Here is my problem: Three congruent (non-square) rectangles are placed to form a larger rectangle. [Two are oriented the same way and the "stacked" while the third is rotated 90 degrees and placed next to the other two.] The total area is 1350 square cetimeters. Square ABCD is then created that has the same perimeter as the large rectangle that was created. E is the midpoint of line CD and F is the midpoint of BC. Find the area of triangle AEF.

	Superimposing images		2006-03-30
		From Laurie: I am a parent and trying to find real world applications for the math strand that includes superimposing one item on another to determine identical. The Alberta strand is match size and shape of figures by superimposing one on top of the other. I am trying to find a way to put this into context for everyday life. Any ideas? Answered by Penny Nom.
	An equilateral triangle		2002-06-11
		From Sarah: Hi. My name is Sarah. I'm a secondary student taking a Math 30C course by correspondence. The question has two parts. The first part is: Draw an equilateral triangle XYZ. Draw the altitude from X to YZ. Choose any point P inside the triangle or on the triangle. Draw perpendiculars from P to the sides of the triangle. The Second part is: Measure the altitude h and the 3 perpendiculars s, t, and u to the nearest mm. Repeat as many time as is necessary until you can state a generalization concerning h, s, t, and u. If you could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Answered by Penny Nom.
	Congruence and symmetry		2001-02-21
		From Chris: My name is Chris and I am a second-grade teacher. I would like to know what the difference is between congruent and symmetry, and how do I explain this to my class? I know that congruent means the same, and symmetry is two identical sides. Is there a difference between the two? I know there must be, but I don't know what or how to explain these two terms.
