<h3>Purpose</h3>
<h4>Tasks</h4>
<p><ul>
<li>Explore geometric objects</li>
<li>Solve geometry problems</li>
</ul></p>
<h4>Representations</h4>
<p><ul>
<li>Described in terms of constraints</li>
<li>Fundamentally three-dimensional</li>
</ul></p>
</section>
<section>
<h3>Status</h3>
<p><ul>
<li>We have an engine that works for at least some simple problems</li>
<li>We have enough of an <a href="../">interface</a> to start testing the engine interactively</li>
</ul></p>

<h3>How spiky is a tetrahedron?</h3>
<p><ul>
<li>Take a regular tetrahedron</li>
<li>Inscribe a sphere in it</li>
<li>Circumscribe a sphere around it</li>
<li>Whats the ratio of the spheres radii?</li>
</ul></p>

<h4>Setup</h4>
<p><ul>
<li>Six solid spheres form a cyclic chain, each one touching the next</li>
<li>Two solid spheres, the “sun” and the “moon,” each touch all the chain spheres</li>
<li>A hollow outer sphere encloses and touches all the other spheres</li>
</ul></p>
</section>
<section>
<h4>Problem</h4>
<p>Fix the diameters of these spheres:</p>
<table>
<tr><td>Outer</td><td>30</td></tr>
<tr><td>Sun</td><td>10</td></tr>
<tr><td>Moon</td><td>6</td></tr>
<tr><td>One chain sphere</td><td>5</td></tr>
</table>
<p>What are the diameters of the other chain spheres?</p>

<h2>Plans</h2>
<p>For summerfall 2025</p>
</section>
<section>
<h3>Narrow</h3>
<p><ul>
<li>Make the engine more robust</li>
<li>Expand our corpus of test problems</li>
<li>To support engine testing, improve the interface as needed</li>
</ul></p>
</section>
<section>
<h3>Broad</h3>
<p><ul>
<li>Explore the “island of usefulness” of our current engine approach
<li>Either find some of its boundaries or show that it covers a large swath of interesting problems</li>
</ul></p>
