Abstract
Problems have been important in the history of mathematics, for the attempts at solution, whether successful or not, have often given results much wider than the original questions. The more obdurate have become notorious. Though circle-squaring and duplicating the cube are obsolete, angle trisection survives. This problem, Fermat’s last theorem and the map-colouring question still appear occasionally in the Problem Bureau’s correspondence.
