To clear up some confusion; this specific method is NOT a way to construct a heptagon. The author should have included the comment that it is "almost" a heptagon. This method is an approximation method. The last side will be slightly different in length due to this approximation. This method is the standard way to "approximate" the heptagon.
I agree with you. The author never actually showed us the imterior angles to prove it was a perfect polygon.
Thanks, this worked great. I am creating real 3D paper prisms and this will help me create the base. With a 35mm side I produced a heptagon using very crude protractor and a HB pencil with was less than .5mm discrepancy. A tolerance more than adequate for my needs especially on such a tiny scale and even with the discrepancy I can build that into my construction, aside from which, observing any such error is impossible to the naked eye.
Thanks sir
Thank you, it helped me a lot
Thanks it helped me for my Designed and Communication Homework
Thank you. Please keep up the good work
why we need to draw a 30 degree and an arc AN to meet with the perpendicular line of AB to get the centre? can help to explain? thank you so much
Thanks a lot it really helped😊😊
Lots of thanks
Yes
This video was helpful. However, you should include how and where does the measure came from so that it's more clear, especially to us students who doesn't have any idea how to do this
Thank u, it helped a lot 😊😊
thank you so much
Thanks a lot!!! It really helped me.☺
Thank you soo much😍😍
Thank you so helpfull
Thx it really help for my homework
Thank you💞💞
Is this the general method
Good morning> I have a question please explan the use of 30 deg angle
thanks a lot
What is that measurements one side
Please my circle is not touching both points only one point,I mean point A and B
They slightly error when drawing
nice but heptagon is unconstructable but it can be constructed by neusis
Thank you
But why 30 degrees?
Can you do it without the protractor (just a compass and straight edge?
Nope, soz: czcams.com/video/O1sPvUr0YC0/video.html
Unfortunately not.
Every regular polygon with a prime number of sides is not constructable with only a compass and straight edge unless its number of sides is equal to a fermat prime.
A fermat prime is a prime number in the form of 2 to the power of 2 to the power of "n" (insert non-negative whole number here), such as 3, 5, 17, 257, 65537...
In fact, these 5 aforementioned fermat primes are the ONLY ONES known to humanity as of now.
The proof of the impossibility of the construction of a heptagon just using a compass and straight edge is part of the Gauss-Wantzel theorem.

God Bless
By the way, the construction in the video is a very close approximation, but not exact.
Ye it is possible cuz it is 30° degree. So you just need to make a 60° degree angle and just divide by 2 so you will get 30° degree angle.
@@InnocentOne933 exactly. Using a protractor is cheating
What is the length of the side line
This heptagon is wrong. Because of Galois Theory, there is impossible to make perfect heptogon by using compass and ruler.
It's a pretty valid approximation if you draw it by hand.
Gauss-Wantzel prove that Heptagon is not constructible polygon since 17xx , this is just approximation , not Exactly heptagon.
I like that
I am trying to make now
Is this mathematically accurate?
Is there a proof of why this works somewhere?
thank you it helped a lot
Not specific enough
Make it easier, here you have some siberian children doing their homework from school
and you have malaysian kids too
How do you know how big to open the compass at 2:15
exactlyyyyyyyy
helpful
mujhy pata ni chl rha h k u ny compus kini open ki h
Is this approximate?
Yes, it is
i guess most are here because of there lesson? on how to make a specific polygon? and forgot how to make them so decided to watch here? lmao
it also helped an all of my polygon creating lessons xd
I call your bluff!
I TRIED IT 5 TIMES, BUT I'M ALWAYS OFF A FEW mm.
I also tried it 7 times but it didn't work
Equilateral
BAJAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING
Not sure yet !!!🙄🙄
I got a hexagon 😭
What is method
Op
This is smort
The video gives you the impression that it is this easy to construct a perfect heptagon. The constructed arcs and lengths look so precise and perfect. BUT THEY ARE NOT.
You have not created a perfect heptagon. Readers should do some independent research about regular polygons that are not constructable.
Not good
Thank you, it helped a lot
