This question is in my geometry book and I need help with it. A child can construct models of buildings by stacking and arranging colored blocks. What might the term construction mean in geometry?

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

Well, I know the Greeks studied geometric construction, and they defined it as the construction of a geometric figure, using only straightedge and compass :)

And Plato only used compass :P
