Answer: True.
The ancient Greeks could bisect an angle using only a compass and straightedge.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ancient Greek mathematician <em>Euclid</em> who is known as inventor of geometry.
The Greeks could not do arithmetic. They had only whole numbers. They do not have zero and negative numbers.
Thus, Euclid and the another Greeks had the problem of finding the position of an angle bisector.
This lead to the constructions using compass and straightedge. Therefore, the straightedge has no markings. It is definitely not a graduated-rule.
As a substitute for using arithmetic, Euclid and the Greeks learnt to solve the problems graphically by drawing shapes .
Y = - 2x + 4

Graph the equation. There are multiple ways to do this.
You can create a table of values, use the quadratic formula, convert from standard to vertex form.
If you're trying to factor, you'll eventually notice this thing cannot be factored (no roots!). If you use the quadratic formula, you will get an imaginary answer (no roots!)
If you go in the route of picking points and coming up with a table of values you'll get a graph like this (see attachment) Notice there are no roots! because the graph never ever hits the x-axis
