Hendecagon of a regular hendecagon is still impossible even with the usage of an angle trisector. It can, however, be constructed via neusis construction and also via two-fold origami. Close approximations to the regular hendecagon can be constructed, however. For instance, the ancient Greek mathematicians approximated the side length of a hendecagon inscribed in a unit circle as being 14/25 units long. The following construction description is given by T. Drummond from 1800: On a unit circle: The "regular hendecagon" has Dih symmetry, order 22. Since 11 is a prime number there is one subgroup with dihedral symmetry: Dih, and 2
How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? dancing on a needle's point occurs in an expository work by the English divine, William Sclater (1575-1626). In "An exposition with notes vpon the first Epistle to the Thessalonians" (1619), Sclater claimed that scholastic philosophers occupied themselves with such pointless questions as whether angels "did occupie a place; and so, whether many might be in one place at one time; and how many might sit on a Needles point; and six hundred such like needlesse points." Harrison proposes that the reason an English writer first introduced the "needle’s point" into a critique of medieval angelology is that it makes for
