A certain polyhedron has 6 faces and 8 vertices.
Must it have a hexagonal cross-section?

Here's 9 consecutive primes that end in a '1':
36539311

36539411
36539431
36539441

Are there arbitrarily long runs of consecutive primes that end in a '1'?

Is it possible to start with a polygon, fold it completely over a single crease, and have the new polygon that its outline forms have a perimeter greater than its original perimeter?

What is the smallest positive integer that can be written as a sum of the squares of two or more consecutive positive integers THREE different ways?
... I answered this question with brute force ( #Mathematica), but I'm wondering if there's a tech-free way to approach it.

Is it possible for a regular polygon to have two (non-congruent) diagonals that are commensurable?
If so, how?
If not, can you prove it?

Those proportions almost certainly (individually) converge, to approximately 0.4951 (1's), 0.3204 (2's), and 0.1845 (3's).
Are these constants algebraic or transcendental? 🤔

I'm pretty sure the answer is "no," but now I'm wondering how one might prove that. (And I don't want to be told! Thus the "limited interaction." And the #WonderWithMe tag.)

In the text I'm using for Advanced Topics this year, the students are asked to prove that "the curve x²+y²-3=0 has no rational points."
That's cool. And it's easy to picture a circle that has infinitely many rational points.
But can a circle have finitely many rational points?

Take the binary representation of 1/√2, but then interpret the digits (still all 1s and 0s) in base-3. Clearly this number is also irrational. But is it expressible in some kind of closed form?

I use #WonderWithMe to indicate that this is a question I'm still pondering myself, and I do not want it to be spoiled for me, or others. (And I also can't wait until I figure it out to share it with you!) Thus the "limited interaction."

Call a "fan" of chords in a circle a set of chords all sharing a single endpoint, for which all the angles between consecutive chords are congruent.
For a given n, does there exist a circle with a fan of n chords that are all integer-length?

I’m going to continue my practice from The Old Place of using #WonderWithMe to indicate that the question I’m asking is one I’m currently pondering myself, and I DON’T WANT IT SPOILED FOR ME. (I’ll also restrict replies to reinforce the point.) Join me!

Is there a function f, defined on all nonzero reals, such that
f(f(x))=1/x

I'm not stuck. I'm in the middle of all of this wondering, and I just thought you all might like to #WonderWithMe. 4/4

#WonderWithMe: What if there were a measure of a polygon called "regularity," in which regular polygons had a regularity of 1, and all others had a regularity between 0 and 1. How might this measure be calculated for an arbitrary polygon?
