<abstract><p>Angle trisection, which involves dividing an angle into three equal parts, is a classic problem in geometry.

The classical geometric construction methods allow for the creation of angles that are multiples of a fixed angle using only a compass and straightedge. The only angles that can be trisected exactly are those that can be constructed by repeatedly bisecting angles, such as angles of 60 degrees (since 60 = 2^2 * 3 * 5). The problem of angle trisection is closely related to the problem of &quot;angle duplication,&quot; which involves constructing an angle that is twice a given angle.
