      Some maths questions have been proven impossible to answer. One that sounds easy is this: how do you divide an angle in 3 with just a compass & a ruler? All such questions are equally hard, because they are impossible.

      The hardest ones for me are ones that you cannot imagine an example to help you think about it. Like questions involving many dimensions. As Joanna says, there are lots of questions with no answer.
