If Moise had defined a surd angle, statement (1) in the middle of page 292 could read (?) There is a surd angle with measure 20. (?) How would you define surd angle? 3. etermine whether each of the following is true or false. riefly justify your answers. a) line with a non-surd slope could contain two S-points. b) If L is an S-line, L could contain a point having one surd coordinate and one non-surd coordinate. c) 6 8 is a surd. d) Let be an S-circle with center (0,0). There exists a surd t such that the points (t,t), (t,-t), (-t,t), (-t,-t) all lie on. e) If x is not a surd then neither is x 2. f) If X 3 is a surd then so is x. g) Given an S-line L and a non-s-point, we can construct (with compass and straight-edge) a line through parallel to L. h) S-circles can contain points having exactly one surd coordinate. i) 3 3 is a surd. j) It is possible with compass and straight-edge to subdivide a circle into 9 congruent subarcs. 4.

10 Some Special Theorems handler 22 Theorem. (oncurrence of ngle isectors) The angle bisectors of are concurrent (i.e., have a common point). roof. Let the angle bisectors of and intersect at and from R draw and, Q, R perpendicular to the sides of as shown. Then Q R and Q by H so that R (HL) and we see that is the bisector of. Q Note: Since, Q, R are perpendicular to the sides of and are equal in length (by T), is the center of a circle which is tangent to the sides of at the points, Q, R. This is the circle inscribed in. is usually called the incenter of. orollary 1. If is the incenter of then m( ) = 90 + ½m( ). roof m( ) = 180 (m( ) + m( )) = 180 ½(m( ) + m( )) = 180 ½(180 m( )) = 90 + ½m( ). orollary 2. If is on the angle bisector of in and m( Α) = 90 + ½m( ) then is the incenter of. roof. Let ' be the incenter of. y orollary 1 m( ') = 90 + ½m( ) = m( ) and by definition ' lies on the bisector of ' so that, ', and are collinear. If -'- then by roblem 8 on page 12 of the Supplementary Notes ' < while if --' then < '. oth cases contradict m( ') = m( ) so we must have = '.

11 handler 23 Theorem (rank Morley, 1899). The points of intersection, Q, R of adjacent trisectors of the angles of are the vertices of an equilateral triangle. roof. or convenience we define three numbers: α = 60 m( )/3 β = 60 m( )/3 γ = 60 m( )/3. Then α, β, γ are positive and α + β + γ = 120. R Q We will start with an arbitrary equilateral triangle XYZ and build up a triangle which is similar to and positioned to XYZ the same way that is positioned to QR. Let X' be the point on the opposite side of YZ from X such that m( YZX') = α = m( ZYX'). hoose Y' and Z' in a similar fashion relative to XZ andxy, respectively. Z γ α 60 γ β X' Y β α 60 γ β Z' Y' β α 60 γ X α Now m( ZYZ') + m( YZY') = γ β > γ + α β = 180, the uclidean arallel ostulate implies the rays Y'Z and Z'Y meet at a point. Likewise X'Z and Z'X meet at a point and Y'X and X'Y meet at a point. We will show that. Now m( ZX') = 180 (α β) = γ, and similarly, m( YX') = β, etc., establishing all angle measures as shown in the diagram above. urthermore, m( YZ) = 180 (2α + β + γ) = α = 60 α and similarly, m( XZ) = 60 β and m( XY) = 60 γ. Now ZX ' YX ' by the converse of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem, XZ XY, and XX ' XX ' so that XZX' XYX' by SSS. We conclude that XX ' bisects ZX'Y = X'. urthermore, m( X) = 180 a = 90 + (90 a) = 90 + ½(180 2a) = 90 + ½(m X') so (by the second corollary to the oncurrence of ngle isectors Theorem) X is the incenter of X' and we may conclude that XX' X.

12 In an exactly analogous way Z is the incenter of Z' so that X' X'X. Hence Z and X are handler 24 trisectors of. We conclude that m( ) = 3m( ZX) = 3(60 β) = m( ). Once again, in an exactly analogous manner we can show that m( ) = m( ) and m( ) = m( ). Thus. urthermore, Z R, X, and Y Q (all by ). y the definition of triangle similarity we have X = and, since and R Z, = = R Z. Therefore, XZ R by the SS similarity theorem. nalogously (once again), ZY RQ and YX Q. pplying all this similarity we get Q R R R = = = = = so that Q R. INLLY, analogously,r QR so that XY X X Z ZX XY QR is equilateral.
