Do you know how to bluild a pentagon using only compass and straightedge? I needed 5 days to complete it. Really a hard problem. Euclid has my respect.

You can try to build it here:sciencevsmagic.net/geo/#

Of course Google is not allowed. You only can use compass, straightedge and logic.

Done

admittedly, if I didn't know sacred geometrical techniques I wouldn't have been able to do this at all.

I don't know any intuitive method to pentagon construction

Dude use a compass.

Make a circle

With the same radious of the circle dp 5 marks in the circle

Then you only have to make it

It's so fucking easy dude

Its about a perfect math pentagon.

ITT: people trying to solve obsolete 3000yo problems

sometimes you need a break from P=NP

just use trigonometry to find length of a diagonal, then construct it

Indeed. I have a rigorous background in Euclidean Geometry. Allow me to show you my construction

>Let ABCDE be a convex regular polygon

That's pretty much it. Go kill yourselves, applied fags.

butthurt that math has no place in real life xD

>Butthurt that nobody wastes their time with constructibility shit anymore.

I see doing constructions in geometry the same way I see 12 year old girls bragging on facebook that they read fucking fiction books.

>Oh look at me I am so smart and special even though I only know the most basic of basic shit.

12 year olds grills are qt

constructions make for a semi fun game euclidea.xyz/game/

All you need is a straight edge.

The circle one got me stuck. How the hell do you do that shit without inscribing it in a square and making a point at the intersection of the square's diagonals?

draw two secant lines
their perpendicular bisectors meet at the center

Its just a litte game senpai, no need to be mean

>I needed 5 days to complete it. Really a hard problem. Euclid has my respect.

This is the shit that kept humanity in the dark ages until analytic geometry came about freeing our thinking and enabling science to occur.

>12 year old girls bragging on facebook that they read fucking fiction books

Holy shit! There are children that still read? Maybe there's still hope for humanity.

Good liberal. Do not forget to vote for Hillary.

Now build the heptagone !

1. Express sin/cos of 18 degrees as constructible numbers
2. Use various theorems you learnt in grade 7
3. ???

This algorithm works for many konstruktibel problen. Use wessily.
