Polygony consists of 23 pieces that are rearranged to form four different regular polygons: an equilateral triangle, a square, a hexagon, and an octagon.

Classroom activities and blackline masters are included, with four activities designed to address specific Common Core State Standards for Mathematics for 8th grade and high school geometry. This fascinating puzzle will challenge the spatial reasoning abilities of even the most gifted students and adults. Ages 12 and up.
