  1. he made it a triangle


  2. built it at the south pole...autumn beat me to it.

  3. the house was made of glass

  4. One answer would have it, the house was built at the South Pole.

    But then the house would not receive any sunlight for 6 moths a year.

    So what the guy did, right, was build it on the near side of the moon, with the roof facing the North Sea.

    Come the day, he said, "Voila! All walls facing North Sea, and sunlight 24 hours a day. What could be better, hey!?"

  5. The house is built on the South Pole. All directions away from this point face North.


  6. The house is on the north pole/south pole

  7. was there only one room or something?

  8. a rotating house?

  9. make a glass house

  10. Ummmmm... the house rotates so that all the walls face north?

    or the walls were built to face north but still give structure to the house?

    idk, this is a good riddle. This means another sleep less night. LOL

  11. The places lying on the same longitude have the same local time,Geographically speaking.But because of country boundaries and time zones this is not always followed.If you are doing time sums,then just consider the places on the same longitude to have the same local time.

  12. house of unmeltable-bulletproof tinted plexiglass(its not a dunb answer.they have actually invented this...) also..tinted so the sun wont hurt as bad


  13. huh was it a glass house

  14. He lived on the north pole

  15. it was a one room house idk lol

  16. He built a round house?


  17. well that doesnt make sense cuz if all the walls faced northed it would be just one long wall. second-  the sun doest always stay in the same spot- it rises in the east and sets in the west! so idk if it actually goes in the north position. third- i think this is a trick question! but i hope i got it right and get 10 pts!  

  18. there was only one wall

  19. the guy lived in the south pole.
