This problem solving strategy is illustrated by examples from the fields of algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and calculus. (MP)

A series of problems involving number theory, the law of cosines, and geometric interpretations of solutions to equations is discussed. (SD)

The problem of finding the area of a regular polygon is presented as a good example of a mathematical discovery that leads to a significant generalization. The problem of finding the number of sides which will maximize the area under certain conditions leads to several interesting results. (LS)
