class missing and don't know how to do a problem.
I missed three class of winter Math Challange I-C and in the live homework recording Mr. John didn't go over it. I don't get problem 2.24 and 2.26.
Thank You.

Also I can't submit my homework for the first 2 classes. What should I do?
Thanks, Bober Yang

Here are some hints for problems 2.24 and 2.26.

For 2.26.a, consider the following diagram:
For 2.26.b consider the following diagram:
