"angle trisection"
 
   its interesting that although we cannot trisect the angle, we are able to provide a diagram of what a successfully trisected angle would like if we were able to produce one. By 'able to provide' I mean 'produced using only a straight edge and a pair of compasses'. To draw a 'trisected angle' simply draw a triangle and copy it to the left and right. Now you can behold the impossible!
