"Create an angle of 30º using only the figure below."
Figure is a triangle with angles of 40, 90, and 50 degrees. I bisected the 90 to get 45... not sure why, I thought that'd get me somewhere. I filled in the bottom angles that resulted as 95 and 85 degrees. I know there must be some way to trisect the 90, but I can't figure it out. It may have something to do with the fact that it's 2:30 in the morning. (No, it's not that I procrastinated - I've worked on the same assignment for about 10 hours over the last 2 days.) Anyway... if you could help, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
