A better way to understand Monty...
I find considering it in terms of ten boxes/cups/doors/whatever You pick one and Monty says you either get to open that door, or the other nine. Which do you choose?
​
As for trisecting an angle, I couldn't help you. Geometry was so far in my past and has rarely been used since.
