Welcome back, everyone! I hope you had a terrific summer. Since our usual time would fall on Labor day weeked, our inaugural September meeting will be held during the last weekend of August. We hope to see you on Saturday, August 29th at 2pm at the Fayetteville Public Library University of Arkansas.

 

This month, we’ll play around with polygons! We’ll look at triangles, area and angle, at how we can apply these to irregular polygons, and at some clever algorithms for computing area.
