Bro, I failed Algebra like 3 times in high school. Never made it to geometry or calculus. So to all those teachers that said we would not always have a calculator in our pockets, we have one, and it also can teach you this! Learned it in 5 minutes! Thank you!

I'm writing a book and I needed this for an event in the book. Thanks it was very interesting

Thanks! I needed this exact information for a small shop project and this was perfect. Short, to the point, and very clearly presented.

Thank you very much. I used to do this all the time in the year 1980 BC (Before CAD), 40 years with CAD drove it out. Can’t wait to go through your other videos, it’s great nostalgia for me.

That was what I needed for my moral class!! Thank you!!

Perfect! Just what i needed to start my new composition! Thank you :)

This is great!!! Thank you so much, I will use this in my ceramics designs. :)

brilliant....great help for geometry of the pyramids.... everything can be done with sticks and string....great for marking out the garden...thanks. maith thú.

Life saver!

Thanks sir

Can you explain the math behind this principle, how & why.

Oh my goodness Chris I love your music @@chrismartin9849

Thank you so much this helped me A LOT💕🔥

Great!👍

Super video thank you sir 🙏

Thank you sir 🙏

Thank you

I like to ask my students sometimes to figure out how to divide a pizza into 5 equal slices, without a protractor to find the 72 degrees necessary. Using just a compass we could probably just about manage it with tolerable accuracy. But in a kitchen, no compass. Perhaps some tongs could be used instead?

I'm guessing this is the kind of thing that was worked out by a process of trial and error.

its funny thinking about how mathematicians do arbritray stuff and end up doing stuff like this

One could also use a protractor to mark the exact points and then work backwards from there

Good

OR…. OR…. I can GUESS , and get super close!!..!!

But first, you need too much digital gear. How do you get this onto a piece of wood for a practical application, instance?

Dude, watching him doing it ... I replicate it with a pencil and a string. It was incredible helpful

I just needed to cut up a big doughnut

How do I do this with my pizza?

Is anyone here because he neede to split a pizza to 5 people 😀🥴

I was with you until 01:15, but after that, your use of jargon completely lost me. "Calculate the perpendicular bisector of the radius...and the radius slightly longer than half the radius..."?! It's too bad you couldn't use layman's terms for those of us who aren't geometricians.

I can definitely put it in layman's terms, but how he said it is more concise. Draw two circles about three quarters the size, one centered on the midpoint and another on the horizontal diameter. The points where those two circles intersect is the *exact* midpoint of the bigger circle's horizontal radius.

Didn't understand you. Starting right after the VERTICLE AND HORIZONTAL LINES. You say 2 points, WTF! Talk INCHES.

Or you could just divide 360 degrees by 5 and come up with 72. Mark the circle every 72 degrees and not have to do all this BS.
