Forbidden Construction: Trisect an Angle - Geometry with a Circle Arc Template & Neusis Straightedge
Thrilled to share my new tool for geometry that is safer, easier to use and more accurate than a compass. Here I show how to trisect an angle - the FORBIDDEN construction. ENJOY! Recent article about it here https://www.aimsciences.org/article/doi/10.3934/steme.2022001 Buy it here! http
