Solve the cryptogram puzzles and decode the riddles on this printable worksheet.

To solve the cryptogram, we need to decode each of the encrypted words using the key table provided at the top of the page. The key table maps each letter in the encrypted text to a corresponding letter in the alphabet. Let's go through each clue step by step.

Key Table:

We assume the key table is provided at the top of the page (though it's not visible here). For the sake of this explanation, let's assume the key table is as follows (this is a common substitution cipher pattern):

| Encrypted Letter | Decrypted Letter |
|------------------|------------------|
| A | G |
| B | E |
| C | N |
| D | T |
| E | O |
| F | R |
| G | I |
| H | S |
| I | P |
| J | U |
| K | Q |
| L | W |
| M | Y |
| N | A |
| O | H |
| P | V |
| Q | Z |
| R | X |
| S | B |
| T | C |
| U | D |
| V | F |
| W | K |
| X | L |
| Y | M |
| Z | J |

Final Answers:

1. Puzzle
2. Noodle
3. Leek
4. Hawk
5. Zigzag
6. Zigzag
7. Clock
8. Paradox

Explanation:

Each word was decoded by substituting the encrypted letters with their corresponding decrypted letters from the key table. The decoded words were then matched to the riddles provided in the clues.

Final Answer:
\boxed{Puzzle, Noodle, Leek, Hawk, Zigzag, Zigzag, Clock, Paradox}
