Here's a surprisingly simple and fun problem - the square inside a circle. Two vertices (corners) of the square lie on the circle, and one edge of the square goes through the centre of the circle. If the circle has a radius of 1, what is the area of the square? Can you crack this one? Find out by grabbing a pen and paper and having a go - press play for an animated solution!
We hope you enjoy solving this problem from the UKMT Maths Challenge (ukmt.org.uk) - tell us how you got on in the comments!
