Abstract

This research aims to describe the mathematical representation ability of students with reflective cognitive style in solving geometric problems. The subjects of this study were two students whose reflective cognitive style were selected based on the results of the MFFT test. The research method used was descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The ability of mathematical representation was described based on three standards of mathematical representation ability, namely; (1) creating and using representations to organize, record, and communicate mathematical ideas, (2) choosing, using and translating between representations to solve problems, (3) using representations to create models and interpret mathematical, physical, and social phenomena. The results showed that subjects with reflective cognitive style can use mathematical representation capabilities well from various types of representations, namely visual images, verbal written texts, and mathematical expressions.
