A nice proof is given of Morley's remarkable theorem on angle trisectors. The transformational point of view is emphasized: reflections, rotations, translations, similarities, inversions, and affine and projective transformations. Many fascinating properties of circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, and conics are developed.Anneli Lax New Mathematical LibraryGeometryMathematicsElectronic books.Geometry.Mathematics.516Coxeter H.
