TRISECTION OF
ANGLE SOLVED
Army Captain Answers Geo
metric Problem.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 12-One Of the
most interesting and intricate problems Of
geometry, which for years has been a
favorite puzzle OF mathematicians, has
been solved by soldier
Captain Terrlu f. Price, aide TO Maj
Gen Charles H. Muir. commander of
the Ninth Corps area Of the United States
Army, has trisected an angle with d.
viders and a right-angled ruler.
The announcement was made by Gen
eral Muir. following reports that an Eas-
tern mathematician had solved the prob
lem, "but was not ready to announce his
method" Captain Price IS a University
Of Pennsylvania honor student In mathe-
matics
Captain Price has not only effected
solution Of the problem, but his diagrams
and particulars Of his achievement are on
file with the War Department General
Muir stated. Briefly, here Is Captain
Prices solution
To trisect an angle with dividers and
right angled ruler:
Draw tangeuts to It's sides at equal
distances from the angle. Measure the
distance from the side or the angle to
the intersection OF the tangents lay
off twice this distance on a straight
line and trisect IT, Using the regular
geometric method for dividing a straight
line into any given number OF partsl
Lay off the resulting third on each
tangent separately. measuring from
the side Of the angle toward the inter
section OF the tangents. Connect the
angle with the two points thus obtained
by straight lines.
Trisect the chord from the bases OF
the tangents already drawn and draw
straight lines from the trisection
points to the angle. Bisect the second
and fourth Of the five angles now
formed from the original angle.
These bisecting lines will trisect the
original angle.
To prove the result correct:
Lay off equal distance from the angle
on its sides and on the trisecting lines
Connect the nearest lines at these points
with straight lines. The result will be
triangles whose sides have been con
structed equally. and whose bases will be
found to be equal by actual measurement.
Therefore the three triangles are equal,
and the three central angles are equal
(being similar angles Of equal triangles).
And as the three central angles which
are equal taken together form the
original angle, the original angle has
been trsected.

During the nine years of separation
from the girl, Mrs. Montgomery spent
a small fortune trying to obtain her

her heart today she had to wage the cam
