Key Points:
- Three Ancient Greek Problems : a) Trisect an angle“, b) Doubling the Cube, c) Square a Circle
- Field Theory
- Abel
- Galois
- Proved by Wantzel 2 out of 3 Greek Problems: 1a) & 1b)
Note :1837 Pierre Wantzel proved 2 out of the 3 ancient Greek Problems “Trisect an angle” & Double a Cube, only 5 yrs after Galois had published his “Group & Field” Theories before death at 21.
Wantzel was the only person in French history who scored 1st in both Concours (法国抄袭中国的数学“科举“) of Ecole Normale & Ecole Polytechnique.
His life regret was switching from his talent in Math to becoming a mediocre Civil Engineer.
