"A great discovery solves a great problem, but there is a grain of discovery in the solution of any problem. Your problem may be modest, but if it challenges your curiosity and brings into play your inventive faculties, and if you solve it by your own means, you may experience the tension and enjoy the triumph of discovery. Such expert experiences at a susceptible age may create a taste for mental work and leave their imprint on mind and character for a lifetime." George Polya, 1944.

"Four phases trying to find the solution, we may repeatedly change our point of view, our way of looking at the problem. We have to shift our position again and again. Our conception of the problem is likely to be rather incomplete when we start the work; our outlook look is different when we have made some progress; it is again different when we have almost obtained the solution. In order to group conveniently the questions and suggestions of our list, we shall distinguish four phases of the work. First we have to understand the problem; we have to see clearly what is required. Second, we have to see how the various items are connected, how the unknown-known is linked to the data in order to obtain the idea of the solution, to make a plan. Third, we carry out our plan. Fourth, we look back at the completed solution, we review and discuss it." George Polya, 1944.

Exercise your brain. Solve these problems about congruence of line segments, angles, triangles, circumferences, and similarity and lift up your geometry skills. Designed for high-school students, college geometry, SAT preparation and teachers with an interest in geometry problem-solving.
