The Cube Duplication Solution (A Compass-straightedge (Ruler) Construction)
Kimuya, Alex M.; Mutembei, Josephine (International Journal of Mathematics Trends and Technology, 2017)This paper objectively presents a provable construction of generating a length of magnitude;, as the geometrical solution for the ancient classical problem of doubling the volume of a cube. Cube duplication is believed to ... -
The Incompatibility between Euclidean Geometry and the Algebraic Solutions of Geometric Problems
Kimuya, Alex M.; Karanja, Stephen Mbugua (European Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, 2023)The transition from the “early-modern” mathematical and scientific norms of establishing conventional Euclidean geometric proofs has experienced quite mixed modes of reasoning. For instance, a careful investigation based ... -
The Possibility of Angle Trisection (A Compass-Straightedge Construction)
Kimuya, Alex M. (Journal of Mathematics and System Science, 2017)The objective of this paper is to provide a provable solution of the ancient Greek problem of trisecting an arbitrary angle employing only compass and straightedge (ruler).(Pierre Laurent Wantzel, 1837) obscurely presented ...
