Dot's position within square is center of square's position within panel vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`All examples in this problem are dots inside square outlines.`

BP825

Ticks mark an infinite sequence of angles on circle such that each angle is the double of the subsequent angle in the sequence (angle measured from rightmost indicated point) vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`This is solvable; it was solved by Sridhar Ramesh.` `A full turn is considered "the same angle" as no turns; likewise for adding and subtracting full turns from any angle. All sequences of angles shown start at the rightmost tick.` `It doesn't matter whether the angle is measured clockwise or counterclockwise, as long as the choice is consistent.`
	CROSSREFS	`Adjacent-numbered pages: BP820 BP821 BP822 BP823 BP824 * BP826 BP827 BP828 BP829 BP830`

BP852

Object shown below is the "limit" of the sequence above (end result after "infinite time") versus not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`The conceptual limit of the sequence may not be the limit of the points in the image. For example in a sequence of halvings the limit value is never reached, so the bottom would never change color and thus its limit would not would not either.` `Sequences progress from left to right (and there is not usually a way to intuitively extend the sequence in the other direction).`

BP897

Wide angles connected to narrow angles vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Another solution is that right examples can be folded down flat onto one isosceles triangle while left examples cannot.` `All examples in this Problem feature four isosceles triangles connected by corners and/or edges.`
	CROSSREFS	`This was conceived as a false solution for BP898.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP892 BP893 BP894 BP895 BP896 * BP898 BP899 BP900 BP901 BP902`

BP898

Can fold into tetragonal disphenoid ("isosceles tetrahedron") vs. cannot.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`Which two sides are the long sides and which side is the short side, or equivalently which angles are the wider angles and which angle is the narrower angle, is the only relevant information to consider for each triangle. Triangles are all assumed isosceles and congruent to one another.` `All examples in this Problem feature four of these triangles connected by corners and/or edges.`
	CROSSREFS	`BP897 was conceived as a false solution for this.` `Adjacent-numbered pages: BP893 BP894 BP895 BP896 BP897 * BP899 BP900 BP901 BP902 BP903`

BP905

Graph can be redrawn such that no edges intersect vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`A graph is a collection of vertices and edges. Vertices are the dots and edges are the lines that connect the dots. On the left, all edges can be redrawn (curved lines are allowed and moving vertices is allowed) such that no edges cross each other and each vertex is still connected to the same other vertices. These graphs are called planar.`

BP946

Can be constructed using 2 identical copies of an image (full overlapping not allowed) vs. not so.

(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)

	COMMENTS	`"Full overlapping not allowed" means you cannot overlay an image onto itself without moving it; if this were allowed all images would be sorted on the left. The copies can be moved around (translated) in 2D but can not be flipped or rotated.` `There are examples on the right drawn with thick lines, and these could be created by copying an image with slightly thinner lines and moving it over a tiny amount. If you fix this issue by saying "the copy has to be moved over more than a tiny amount" then the Bongard Problem is perfect but not precise, but if you fix this issue by saying "interpret the figures as made up of (infinitesimally) thin lines" then it's precise but not perfect. - Aaron David Fairbanks, Jun 17 2023`
