    This document contains the solutions to two problems using Polya's four-step problem-solving strategy. For the first problem, the student used the pattern that i raised to an odd power is i, and an even power is -1 to determine that i^173 is equal to i. For the second problem, the student folded a rectangle into thirds, drew lines on the folds, and unfolded it to find that there were now five total rectangles.

    A. Solve the following problems using Polya’s four-step problem-solving strategy.

    1. In the complex number system, 𝑖 1 = 𝑖 , 𝑖 2 = −𝑖, 𝑖 4 = 1, 𝑖 5 = 𝑖 , . . .


    Find 𝑖 173 .
    Solution:
    𝑖1 𝑖 Odd 1
    𝑖2 -1
    𝑖3 -1 Even 2
    𝑖4 1
    𝑖5 𝑖 Odd 3
    𝑖6 -1
    Solution: ¿𝑖173
    ¿odd
    ¿𝑖
    So, therefore the answer is 𝑖

    2. Consider a rectangle with length l and width w. Now fold it into two, draw a line on the
    fold, and unfold the rectangle. Observe that there are now three rectangles, two small
    rectangles, and the original rectangle.
    Fold the rectangle into three, draw a line on the fold then unfold. How many rectangles do
    you see?
    After following the instruction of folding the rectangular paper into three, I saw total
    of five (5) rectangles, four (4) small rectangles and the original rectangle.
