SOLUTIONS TO THE CREATIVE PROBLEM-SOLVING PUZZLES

Puzzle One: Connect the Dots

Look at the nine dots below. Your task is to connect all nine dots with four straight connecting lines. Once you place your pencil on the paper, you may not lift it until
you have completed the task. The lines may intersect, but you may not go over the same line twice.

                      *           *            *

                      *           *            *

                      *           *            *

(dots appear three in a row across and three in columns down, in a square)


To solve this puzzle, try extending your lines beyond the confines of the square formed by the dots. There are many possible solutions.  One is as follows:

Start at the lower right point and draw to the upper left point; then go across the top row to the right - but extend one space beyond the square;  then draw diagonally down and to the left - marking two dots and ending up outside the square in the lower left; then complete the puzzle by drawing upward through the remaining two dots.

Puzzle Two: Supply the Missing Letters

Look at the problem below. There is a rationale as to why some letters are on the top and some are on the bottom.  Your task is to determine why the letters are arranged as they are. Once you do this, you will know where other letters of the alphabet should be placed.  Write in the next two letters in the sequence.

B               C               D
A               E               F

To solve this puzzle, think about the shape of the letters.  Letters on the top row are all made with curved lines.  Those on the bottom are made with straight lines. Therefore, the next two letters in the alphabet (G and H) would be placed as follows:

B C D C
A E F H

Puzzle Three: A Problem in Mathematics?

Look at the problem below. Under each of the single digit numbers 4, 5, and 8 there are two-digit numbers.  Your task is to figure out the pattern and by doing so place the correct number in the blank space under the number 7.

4                   5                    6                      7                   8
61                 52                   63                                         46

To solve this puzzle, you must multiply the top number by itself and then reverse the digits in your answer to get the bottom number.  Notice that 4 x 4 = 16, reversed is 61; 5 x 5 = 25, reversed is 52; etc.  Therefore, 7 x 7 =49, reversed is 94.  

4 5 6 7 8
61 52 63 94 46
