This book intends to test the mathematical concepts taught in intermediate school with an emphasis on the visual skills. The problems are based on middle school curriculum but they are meant to be challenging, and meant for visual learners and high achievers. The use of diagrams and color coding scheme allows enhancing the description of the problems presented in this book and to lead the problem solver towards the solution.
This book is a compendium of the intermediate level books in the Visual Mathematics Series. They cover topics of

- Elementary (introductory solved visual problems)
- Pre-algebra
- Geometry
- Algebra

The problems presented in this book are in FULL COLOR and they create a visual dimension to the underlying mathematical concepts. It intends to appeal to both sides of the brain - the left and the right. It requires understanding the problem presented in a visual manner, but requires solving the problems using a combination of visual insight and mathematical discipline.
This book provides a wide variety of problems, albeit a very limited number of each type. The main goal is to maintain the student's interest. The first eighteen pages include solved examples of visual math problems and should provide the necessary background. Many of the problems in the Pre-Algebra section will remind you of logic based grid puzzles, but the problems in this book have a variety of graph as well as grid representations. The problems in the Geometry section require thinking in relative terms and many of the problems have a certain artistic flavor. The algebra section is also about geometry problems that require algebraic problem solving.
