The phrase 'geometry problem' is correct and usable in written English, and it can be used whenever you describe a problem that involves the study of shapes, sizes, and relative positions of figures.
For example, "Although I am usually good at math, I couldn't figure out the answer to the geometry problem on the exam."
At Cambridge, he and several friends tackled a seemingly straightforward geometry problem: dividing a square into smaller squares.
There was an ancient geometry problem called "squaring the circle" that confounded mathematicians for ages before someone finally proved it to be an impossible task.
Kristin Scott Thomas, like many of the womenfolk, is landed with wearing one of those pentagonal bonnets, and looks as if she is frowning out from the middle of a geometry problem.
He addressed Pell as if he were a teacher taking a pupil through a not very difficult geometry problem: "Is it not the case that the church has a responsibility to deal with those allegations irrespective of whether the police are able to take action?" Pell sparred for a time before conceding it was.
It's a high-school geometry problem on a cosmic scale: if you know how far each of the four points on the Einstein cross travelled and you know the angles between them, you can work out precisely how far away the cluster and the supernova are from each other and from Earth — a distance that can be measured only approximately by other means.
These are lengths that no ruler can measure, and even asking for their approximation is a way of foolishly telling ourselves that a human situation is as simple a geometry problem: if we only sit down and concentrate, we can solve it.
Looking at specific sections of the older test, Mr. Loveless found that students have improved their performance in geometry, problem-solving, data analysis and algebra, but lost ground on fractions, decimals, and multiplication and subtraction of whole numbers.
The roots of calculus lie in some of the oldest geometry problems on record.
The Rhind papyrus contains geometry problems that compute the slopes of pyramids and the volume of various-shaped granaries.
On a summer afternoon, Isabel, a math tutor with long chestnut-colored hair and hoop earrings, sat in the lower-right corner of my computer screen as I wrestled with geometry problems.
It is assumed that the basis of the integral geometry problems is the Radon transform [2].
