Everyone likes change-a-letter quizzes, but how about change-a-number? You will be given a regular clue for a word that has the letter "H", be it definition or trivia. Either change or remove the "H" to get a term used in mathematics. Example included.
Ex:Change the "H" in a word meaning "sub sandwich" to get a number." The sub sandwich clue points to the word HERO. Change the "H" in HERO to get ZERO, which is a number and the correct answer.

-1.The first real clue is: Change the "H" in a unit of time to get a number. 4 letters

2.Change the "H" in a word meaning "to sharpen" to get a three-dimensional solid. 4

3.Remove the letter "H" from a word meaning "to glisten" to get a common term in trigonometry. 4

4.Change the "H" in a word often paired with "kin" to get a type of quadrilateral. 4, Also a type of bird

5.Change the "H" in the first word of a "magic" phrase to get a term in algebra often used when referring to conic sections. 5

-6.Change the "H" in a famed warrior of the Trojan War to get a term used in both trigonometry and physics. 6

-7.Remove the "H" from a word meaning "altitude" to get a number. 5

8.Change the letter "H" in an optically-impaired Egyptian god to get a three-dimensional shape. 5

9.Remove the letter "H" from a architectural symbol of power and "triumph" to get a term used in circle geometry. 3

10.Change the "H" in the first name of 1951 American novel's protagonist to get a word used in algebra that describes a specific mean, rectangle, or ratio. 6 g-----

I change all my passwords to "incorrect". So whenever I forget, it says, "your password is incorrect".

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
