However, when they have got a solution, students at this category do not want to look for the other solutions. While students as climber category in solving quadrilateral problem have the awareness to solve problems to find solutions and they want to look for the other solutions. Based on this result, it shows that the students with the higher of AQ level then they have the higher problem-solving skills and the higher metacognition ability in solving quadrilateral problem.
