(Almost) trisect an angle

TH-cam has a lot of phoney and misleading videos telling you how to solve the insoluble problem of trisecting an angle using compass and straightedge. In this video, I will show you how you can use a neat infinite series to approximately trisect any angle.
This doesn’t break the usual rule of construction - I am using a compass and straightedge only, just that I am using an infinite number of steps, something that isn’t always explicitly forbidden.
If you enjoy these videos - please like, comment and subscribe and share. My eventual goal is to build an online school with other independent maths teachers here on the internet.

My trisect circles were always so unbalanced. Thank you for making my math teachers stop yelling at me.
