Linda’s Trisection

Linda Chiem

Editor’s note: Linda is a student at St. Mary’s High School in Calgary. On her own initiative, she came up with the following procedures for trisecting a segment and trisecting an angle. Student initiatives should be encouraged. I am prepared to seriously consider student work for inclusion in delta-K.
