摘要
一位美术老师引起了我的注意,下面的近似构造是在一个给定的圆上刻下一个有n个边的正多边形,直径为AB,圆心为O。在AB中求C,使AC: AB = 2: n,构造等边三角形ABD。如果产生的直流电满足E中的圆,则AE大约是所需多边形的一条边。
On an approximate construction for a regular polygon
My attention was drawn by an Art teacher to the following approximate construction for inscribing a regular polygon of n sides in a given circle, having diameter AB , centre O . Find C in AB so that AC : AB = 2: n , and construct the equilateral triangle ABD . If DC produced meets the circle in E , then AE is approximately a side of the required polygon.
