Trisecting Angles?

well, i'm just wondering if you know how to construct the 2 trisecting rays.

for those people who haven't taken Geometry, to bisect is to split in half, and to trisect is to split in thirds.

Proofs are pointless and annoying.

Anyone here wanna wage a war on proofs?

Since you can't divide a ray I expect they mean to trisect the angle that they form. You'll need a compass for that.

I passed geometry with a B but I forgot most of it.
