What Do You Know About The Carpenter's Problem?
Settings
In the carpenter's problem, you are to provide answers on the likelihood of a simple polygon being moved to a point where all vertices are convex when the length of the edges is properly established. The problem became popular following attempts by mathematicians to solve it in the 21st century. How conversant are you with geometry problems? Do not be found wanting!
