Constructions of a square and a regular pentagon only with a compass
Original language description
In 1797, Lorenzo Mascheroni proved that a compass used for constructions has the equal power as using a ruler altogether with the compass. Therefore, it is possible to construct all ruler-and-compass constructions only with the compass itself. The aim of this article is not to prove the theorem but to introduce interesting constructions of a square and a regular pentagon.
