A New Simple Proof of the Morley's Trisector Theorem
Yiu-Kwong Man1
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v56 n5 p980-988 2025
In this paper, a simple proof of the Morley's Trisector Theorem is presented which involves basic plane geometry only. The use of backward geometric approach, trigonometry or advanced mathematical techniques is not required. It is suitable for introducing to secondary or undergraduate students, as well as teachers or instructors for learning or teaching plane geometry.
