## Description

From the practical fundamentals to the more demanding, this pocket-sized book introduces the origins and basic principles of geometric constructions using ruler and compass. Since the earliest times mankind has employed the simple geometric forms of straight line and circle. Originally marked out by eye and later using a stretched cord, in time these came to be made with the simple tools of ruler and compass. This small book introduces the origins and basic principles of geometric constructions using ruler and compass, before going on to cover dozens of geometric constructions, from the practical fundamentals to the more demanding. - Constructions for more than thirty regular polygons - Introduces geometric construction using compasses alone and using rulers alone - Explains why trisecting an angle is impossible using classical rules and how to trisect an angle anyway - Highlights the relationship of geometric construction with many fundamental developments throughout the history of mathematics

Review: Good shape design book - Super cool book with useful instructions on drawing various shapes. I feel like I'm stepping back into the 16th century.
Review: Very Informative - Excellent and informative book, I highly recommend it

Excellent and informative book, I highly recommend it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant Little Book
*by G***N on February 21, 2023*

It looks Much Larger on Amazon, but when it arrives in a small box it's even smaller than you thought it was! This just means that it's SPECIAL and you'll have no problem putting it where you can use it for reference again. Fantastic instructions on Ruler & Compass, from the most basic Geometry into more difficult constructions that previously, if you attempted such, were either filled with errors, or the end result of trial and error,(or you just gave up.) How about making an Ellipse? Enter the Authority; and there's lots to learn and enjoy. -Thank You, Andrew Sutton for such a useful "Little Book" that's Really Big!
