Extract
Morley's theorem states that the points of intersection of adjacent trisectors of the angles of any triangle are the vertices of an equilateral triangle, known as Morley's triangle. See Figure 1.
Concise proofs of the theorem are given in recent papers [1, 2]. A good picture of important previous work can be obtained by looking at [3, p. 1999], and examining references cited there.
