Geometric Design: Example Problems

 
It doesn't seem to matter how many times we read about a concept, most of us won't remember it or fully understand it until we have worked with it. To encourage this extra level of comprehension, we have provided an example problem for each of the applicable Geometric Design concepts. The more concerned you are about your understanding of a topic, the more seriously you will want to approach the example problem for that topic.
