Which of these constructions is impossible using only a compass and straightedge?

A. Doubling the square
B. Bisecting any angle
C. Doubling the cube
D. Trisecting a right angle

Respuesta :

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The topic is on: 'impossible geometric construction"

The three areas of concern are : Trisecting an angle, squaring a circle and doubling a cube.

In double a cube the , when the edge in 1 unit will give the equation will give the equation x³=2 whose solution yields cube root of 2. This problem can not be solve because cube root of 2 is not an Euclidean number.

Answer:

C. Doubling the cube.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric construction is majorly a two dimensional drawing, excluding some form of projections (isometric and oblique drawing) which are three dimensional. Essential instruments to use in construction are; a pair of compass and straightedge (eg ruler).

From the options stated in the given question, doubling the cube is difficult to construct using the instruments given. A cube is a three dimensional shape that has all sides to be equal. It is a prism formed from a square, and it has six faces.
