Constructing Minimal Area (Posted on 2010-05-13) Difficulty: 3 of 5
In Minimal area, we were asked to find the property of a line which minimized the area of the triangle it completed. It turned out the given point was the midpoint of the third side. In this problem, I am asking for a ruler and compass construction of that line, given the original angle and point.
