Finding the area of rhombi cut from a prism of wood. Calculating the angles on a polygon with forty sides. These are some of the problems students might face while participating in a math team event.
The math team, consisting of eight students on the scoring team, attended the 2013 Minnesota State High School Mathematics League state meet on March 11 at South St. Paul High School. The team received first place for highest number of points during the regular season for Tier II and first place for the Tier II state meet.

![ECLIPSE. A solar eclipse is a rare event in which the moon is between Earth and the Sun, blocking the view of the sun. In other parts of the United States, the view of the Sun will be totally blocked, constituting whats called a total eclipse. A total eclipse is a completely different event that is another level of coolness. So if they [the students] have that chance, they should absolutely take the chance to see a total eclipse if they ever can. The next one in Minnesota will be the year 2099, Astronomy and Planetary Science teacher Joseph Martin said.](https://www.rubiconline.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Drawing-8.sketchpad.png)
