Students with a rigor level of geometric thinking can analytically solve problems, yet the ability may not be readily observable. Thus, an example of how students solve problems merits explorations. Inspired by student’s problem solving, this study aimed to examine the student’s anticipatory profile in determining Papaya tree roots' dimensions. This qualitative research utilized tests and interview. Two tests were carried out: van Hiele geometric level grouping test for selecting the research participants and the report-based test for the actual project. Seventeen students took the van Hiele test, and one of them, who achieved the rigor level, was selected for the interview. Data obtained from the interview were then analyzed qualitatively. The study showed that students with a rigor level of geometric thinking anticipated analytically. The subject was able to explain a geometric problem systematically, starting from analyzing problems, clarifying detailss, to presenting arguments clearly and precisely. The findings in this study generate useful information for teachers who train their students to analyze a geometric problem correctly and adequately.

This article addresses the power relation in qualitative research and especially the importance of taking into consideration the problematic aspects of the power relation when executing the final interpretation of qualitative research. The methodology literature examines the unequal power relation in qualitative research by focusing on how society has become an interview society and on the lack of equality in interviews. Although the literature recommends being aware of asymmetry between research participants, it fails to look at how to address the final interpretation of qualitative research if the interpretation also takes the unequal power relation into account. Consequently, interpreting the researched in a respectful manner is difficult. This article demonstrates the necessity of increasing awareness of the unequal power relation by posing, discussing and, to some extent answering, three methodological questions inspired by meta-theory that are significant for qualitative research and qualitative researchers to reflect on. This article concludes that respectful interpretation and consciously paying attention to the unequal power relation in the final interpretation require decentring the subject, dissociating from the ideal of intersubjectivity, being descriptive instead of normative, accepting the unconquerable distance between the researcher and the researched and looking at the entire research process and analyses as an undeniable coproduction and interpretation.

Abstract: Due to difficulties in learning geometry, the teacher plays an important and active role in creating students who have good problem solving skills. The teacher also has to test the level of geometrical thinking of students based on Van Hiele's theory to find out the students understanding about geometry material, so the teacher can overcome the difficulties of students in learning geometry. This research is designed to explore and describe the process of geometry problem solving based on Van Hiele's theory. Therefore this research used descriptive exploratory. It used qualitative approach. The subject of this research is limited to University of Muhammadiyah Sorong students which obtained the level of visualization, analysis, informal deductive and will be analyzed based on the gender. Data of this research is 1) Geometry Van Hiele Test; 2) Problem Solving Test; 3) Interview. The conclusion of this research is: 1) At the level of male visualization thinking is to identify problem and determine goal using language problem. While at the level of women visualization, it reached on determining goal, ; 2) the level of male analysis thinking is able to pass five steps in problem solving by using own language but are less systematic. While level of female analysis thinking is able to pass five steps in problem solving systematically; 3) level of male deductive formal thinking is to pass five steps problem solving systematically and using own language. While level of female deductive formal thinking is able to pass five steps problem solving systematically and explaining by using own language.

Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif deskriptif yang bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kemampuan pemecahan masalah siswa kelas XI SMA dalam menyelesaikan soal-soal pemecahan masalah matematika pada pokok bahasan lingkaran. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah 30 siswa di salah satu kelas XI IPA di SMA Negeri 5 Kota Bengkulu yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Setelah siswa mengerjakan 5 soal pemecahan masalah tentang lingkaran selama 60 menit secara tertulis, jawaban siswa kemudian dianalisis dan diidentifikasi untuk menemukan bagaimana siswa menyelesaikan soal, banyak strategi pemecahan masalah yang digunakan siswa, serta banyak solusi atau jawaban yang didapat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa beberapa siswa belum mampu menyelesaikan masalah dengan tepat disebabkan kesalahan dalam langkah mensintesis dan menganalisis soal. Strategi yang mayoritas digunakan oleh para siswa dalam menyelesaikan masalah adalah drawing a picture (menggambar). Siswa juga menggunakan strategi guessing and checking (menebak dan menguji). Berkaitan dengan banyaknya jawaban siswa, siswa menjawab soal tertutup dengan jawaban yang sama, sedangkan untuk soal terbuka ditemukan tiga jawaban berbeda.Students’ problem-solving ability in solving closed and open-ended problems on the subject of the circleAbstractThis research was descriptive qualitative research that aimed to describe the problem-solving abilities of eleventh-grade students in solving mathematical problems on the subject of the circle. The subjects in this study were 30 students in one of the XI Science classes in SMA Negeri 5 Bengkulu City, Indonesia selected by purposive sampling. After students worked on five problem-solving questions about the circle for 60 minutes in writing-form, the students’ answers were then analyzed and identified to find how students solve the problems, how many problem-solving strategies used by students as well as many solutions or answers obtained. The research finding showed that some students have been not able to solve the problems correctly due to their misconceptions when doing the steps of synthesizing and analyzing. The majority of the strategies used by students in solving problems were drawing a picture. Students also used the guessing and checking strategy. Regarding the number of students' answers found, students answered closed questions with the same answers while for open-ended questions, it was found that students were able to find three different answers.
