The Math Forum: Ask Dr. Math: "Impossible" Geometric Constructions

For Students 9th - 10th
Three geometric constructions students like to say are "impossible" are explained here. Trisecting an angle, squaring a circle, and doubling a cube are examined as being either possible or impossible, depending on the "rules" you use.

Illustrative Mathematics: g.c Inscribing a Circle in a Triangle Ii

For Teachers 9th - 10th Standards
This task focuses on a fact which comes out of the construction of the inscribed circle in a triangle: the angle bisectors of the three angles of triangle ABC all meet in a point. Aligns with G-C.A.3.
