A Challenging Geometric Construction

Mathematics is patterns and logic, imagination and rigor. It is a way of seeing and a way of thinking. Math Mornings is a series of public lectures aimed at bringing the joy and variety of mathematics to students and their families. Speakers from Yale and elsewhere will talk about aspects of mathematics that they find fascinating or useful. The talks will usually be accessible to students from 7th grade and up, although occasionally some familiarity with high-school subjects will be helpful.
Math Mornings lectures will occur on three Sundays each semester at Yale University. The second lecture for the series was given by mathematical sculptor, George Hart, on November 11, 2012 who spoke about "A Challenging Geometric Construction."
