Research output: Contribution to journalArticlespeer-review

Abstract

In this paper, a simple proof of the Morley’s Trisector Theorem is presented which involves basic plane geometry only. The use of backward geometric approach, trigonometry or advanced mathematical techniques is not required. It is suitable for introducing to secondary or undergraduate students, as well as teachers or instructors for learning or teaching plane geometry. Copyright © 2024 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
