The 13 pages that link to Geometric construction, each with the reason it gives.

• Euclidean geometryRelated: Euclid presents many results as constructions permitted by his geometric rules.

• Euclid's ElementsBroader topic: Many propositions solve problems by constructing figures with an unmarked straightedge and compass.

• Synthetic geometryRelated: Constructed auxiliary points and lines expose relationships that a proof can use.

• Greek mathematicsRelated: Construction problems shaped what counted as an acceptable Greek geometric solution.

• Thales' theoremNarrower topic: A diameter and its circle construct points that yield right angles.

• Doubling the cubeRelated: The problem asks for a construction, not merely a numerical approximation.

• Descriptive geometryRelated: Descriptive geometry expresses spatial solutions as exact constructions in a drawing.

• Pappus of AlexandriaRelated: Construction problems are among the methods and problems treated in Pappus’s survey.

• Napoleon's theoremRelated: Erecting equilateral triangles on the sides is the theorem's defining construction.

• Feuerbach's theoremNarrower topic: The theorem identifies a precise point of tangency in a constructed triangle diagram.

• Intersecting secants theoremRelated: The theorem can determine missing lengths in constructed circle configurations.

• Six circles theoremRelated: The theorem predicts a final circle from a sequence of circle intersections.

• Reuschle's theoremRelated: Triangle centers and their associated circles are defined through constructions.
