Scavenger Hunt 2017

Good luck on your journey. Make sure to take a group picture at every stop with the markers found. You will need a compass, calculator, google maps, phone, a picture of poison oak and a camera. Every stop will have a marker you must locate and take a picture with. Each marker will be readily visible.

CLUE ONE.

I am a number. Let me tell you what happened to me. I was square rooted first. I was then multiplied by two. I was then added to 500. Then I was divided by 100! Only to be only to be added to 10000! What is my new number? What WAS my number? 10,005.11734985982 is what I am NOW. But what WAS the number before? Either way, my name is Long I Tude. Nice to meet you. Meet my friend, Lat I Tude.

I am Lat I Tude. I have a story to tell you. I am negative. I then was subtracted by ten squared. I was divided by ten squared. I was then divided by ten and then squared. I then squared myself. It made me bigger than I needed to be, so I subtract myself by 5!. I was then divided by 5!. To my dismay, I was then added to 5!. I am now 119.0000000011476. Punctuation matters.

CLUE TWO

I am not a perfect number. I am a odd though. I do have one perfect square factor in me. That perfect factor represents 25% of my total factors. I am also not a perfect square number, but what number am I? Did I mention I am a classroom number? Find me!

CLUE THREE.

I am a perfect number. I am a classroom. Who am I?

CLUE FOUR, FIVE, SIX and SEVEN

Each letter of the alphabet represents a number. A = 1, B = 2, etc. Solve the following functions. Each answer will correspond to a letter. Then unscramble those letters for the clue to the FOUR locations.

CLUE 8

Start at the grotto. Say a short prayer for your family. Take out your compass.

How far north can you go? Be careful for poison oak and spiderwebs.

CLUE 9

Look at the map of the Villanova Preparatory School campus. It is quite symmetrical from east to west. Some would say it is a trapezoid but it is not a quadrilateral. If it WAS a REGULAR polygon, each of its angles would be 120 degrees.

CLUE 10

Go to this location. Take a picture.

TASK 11

Make a thank you card for a teacher. Each of you.

TASK 12

Find a teacher and take a picture with them.

CLUE 13 - FOR FRIDAY THE 13TH!

Find this location. Take a better picture than mine.

Return to starting point! Perhaps you can unscramble all the letters you found to reveal a phrase.
