First two problems, trisecting the angle and doubling the cube are solved by using marked ruler and compass, because when we use marked ruler more points are possible to construct and with the help of these points more figures are possible to construct. The problems, squaring the circle and Construction of all regular polygons are still impossible to solve.","PeriodicalId":274254,"journal":{"name":"Engineering Drawing","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129870638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
