Re: [obm-l] Trisect angle geometrically



Tem um artigo na American Monthly,na internet:tente procurar em http://mathcircle.berkeley.edu que tem.E do Arthur Baragar,na parte que fala de Kiran Kedlaya.

Ola Pessoal,

A mensagem abaixo pode ser do interesse de muitas pessoas. Nela o Conway
fala da trisseccao do angulo, um dos problemas classicos da antiguidade.
