An angle is said to be trisected, if it is divided into three equal parts. If in Fig. 2.42, ∠BAC = ∠CAD = ∠DAE, how many trisectors are there for ∠BAE?

Question

An angle is said to be trisected, if it is divided into three equal parts. If in Fig. 2.42, ∠ BAC = ∠ CAD = ∠ DAE, how many trisectors are there for ∠ BAE?

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Trisectors are the lines which trisect an angle (or which divide an angle into 3 equal parts).

So, here we have two trisectors for ∠ BAE: AC and AD.
