	Euclidean Math puzzle		2000-01-24
		From Margaret Matthews: (Check out this web-site: Simeon's Triangle Puzzle ) I have tried to figure out how this could be, because everything I know about it tells me it can't be. However, I can't seem to make it NOT work. Two right angle triangles. They are each cut up into four identical pieces. In the first, all the pieces fit together so that there are NO empty spaces; in the second, presumed to be identical in size to the first, the pieces are slightly rearranged, and now, there IS a space in the triangle. Answered by Patrick Maidorn and Claude Tardif.
	Non-Euclidean Geometry		1999-02-10
		From Robert Smith: Is non-euclidean geometry necessary for the college bound student? I have students that are inerested in teaching math one day. My school is restricted to Euclidean Geometry. Answered by Walter Whiteley and Jack LeSage.
