The classical problem of angle trisection cannot be solved. If it were possible, it would provide the solution to a cubic equation. (-but it isn't and it won't!)

How do you solve a cubic centimeter?
A cubic centimetre is a measure of volume. There is nothing to solve.
What would be an equation for the statement five times the complement of an angle less twice the angle's supplement is 40 degreesFind the measure of the supplement?
Suppose the supplement of the angle is x degrees. Then the angle is 180 - x degrees. Therefore the complement of the angle is 90 - (180 - x) degrees = x - 90 degrees. So 5*(x - 90) - 2*x = 40 Solve the above equation for x.
What are some ways to solve an equation?
solve it
What equation do you get when you solve 2x plus 3y 12 for y?
If you solve such an equation for "y", you get an equation in the slope-intercept form.
Can you solve for a variable in an expression or equation?
you can only solve for one in an equation so it can equal something

If the to angles equal 90 degrees and An angle is 40 degrees more than its complement what is the measure of the angle?
You can solve by substituting (x) for the unknown angle and (x + 40) for the angle plus 40 degrees and set the equation as: x + (x + 40) = 90 (then simplify) 2x + 40 = 90 (then isolate the known from unknown by subtracting 40 from each side of the equation) 2x = 50 (divide both sides by 2 to solve for x) x (the unknown angle) = 25 degrees now you can substitute the value of the angles to prove the equation.
Can you solve for a variable in an equation?
Sure. You can always 'solve for' a variable, and if it happens to be the only variable in the equation, than that's how you solve the equation.
Do you answer an equation?
you don't answer an equation, you solve an equation

The obtuse angle of an isosceles triangle measures 120 degrees write and solve an equation to find the measure of the base angles?
Well if it has 180 degrees over all, and the two base angles have to be congruent, then the equation is 180-120=2x or each base angle is 30 degrees.
Can you solve the equation 3q 11 8q99?
It is not an equation if it does not have an equals sign. You could simplify it but not solve it.

How do you solve integers?
There is no such thing as "solving integers". You can solve an equation, which means finding all the unknowns in that equation, but you can't solve an integer.
