266- The Surprise of Equivalent Problems

Friday, November 14, 2014: 2:00 PM-3:00 PM
B21B (Greater Richmond Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Margaret E. Coffey


Problem solvers take pleasure in observing that some problems can be solved by several different methods. The converse is also wonderful: two, maybe more, seemingly unrelated problems are linked by the same mathematics. The presenter, a co-editor of the "Calendar" in Mathematics Teacher, will share some "equivalent" problems with her audience.

Presentation Format: 9-12 Session
