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.

You don't need advanced algebra to prove that it is impossible to trisect a line segment using only a straight edge and a compass: anyone knows that you will also need a pencil! And one you have that then there are plenty of easy ways to do it.


How Do you solve a cubic equation by trisecting an angle?

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!)
