Can you trisect a right angle into four equal parts using only a compass and a straight edge?

"Trisecting" is cutting into three equal parts, not four. Trisecting is impossible. Cutting into four equal parts is possible though, and trivial once you know how to bisect an angle.


How do you construct an angle of 135 degrees using compass?

In addition to a compass, you WILL need a straight edge.Draw a long straight line.Using the compass and straight edge, and standard procedures, draw a perpendicular bisector of the line.Then, using other standard geometrical construction procedures, bisect one of the right angles to produce a 45 degree angle.The remaining right angle and the 45 degree angle next to it will be 135 degrees - as required.


Is it possible to bisect any given angle using only a straightedge and a compas?

Yes Set the compass at a reasonable width. Put the point of the compass on the point of the angle. Draw an arc on each arm of the angle. With the point of the compass on where one arc intersects one arm of the angle, draw a further arc between the arms of the angle (roughly in the middle). With the point of the compass on the other arc-arm intersection, draw another arc to intersect this just drawn arc. With a straight edge join this intersection to the point of the angle - this line bisects the angle.
