Why did Odysseus reveal his true identity to the cyclops?
He revealed his true identity because he was boasting about being clever and stuff. He wasn't being very bright, as usual.
What did Odysseus say that angered Poseidon?
He did not say anything to Poseidon; rather, he blinded Polyphemus, the god's cyclops son, because of his pride (his hubris) Odysseus revealed his true identity to the cyclops, and in return Polyphemus told his father (the resulting hamartia.)
What is your general impression of Odysseus based on the adventures with the cyclopes?
My general impression is one of a man who has a high ego. I think that Odysseus is full of pride since he reveals his true identity after he had defeated the Cyclops. He says he lives in Ithaca and is the son of Laertes so the Cyclops knows exactly who is.
What are some of Odysseus' negative character traits?
He was unfaithful towards Penelope and he didn't thoroughly think through his actions all the time (i.e. telling the cyclops his true name).
Odysseus is perhaps best-known for?

True or false that odysseus says that the cyclops are solitary louts who do not have tribal customs or farms?
False. Odysseus does not say that the cyclops are solitary louts who do not have tribal customs or farms. In fact, he describes them as living in a community and cultivating the land in Homer's "The Odyssey."
What do you think of Odysseus's decision to taunt the Cyclops from his ship?
I thought this was a stupid decision. Odysseus knew what the cyclops could do to him. He also knew that he had really ticked off the cyclops. By taunting him from his ship, he just made him more upset and almost killed his crew, as well as himself. Also by doing this, he got himself cursed by Posiden. I hope this helped!

Luke, Thalia, and Annabeth were trapped in a Cyclops's lair, and the Cyclops lured them by mimicking their voices. Annabeth managed to stab the Cyclops in the foot and cut Thalia free, and together, the three were able to escape. However, in the time it took them to defeat the Cyclops, the other monsters that had been chasing them caught up, and were able to kill Thalia on Half Blood Hill.
