Apparently, this construction, the original square with semi-diagonals as @DaveC426913 drew in post #18, goes back thousands of years...

Yes, I rounded it to fit the grids of the graph paper from 2.828 to 2.75 since the grids were quarter inch. Made the drawing a lot easier!

I believe you have it completely correct, (post 46). You didn't get the black marker right on top of the fine line in all cases, but...

It looks off but I computed the coordinates and checked the edge lengths which are ##2-√2##.

This, by the way, is the actual fold template for the origami diamond. You can see that the pseudo-diagonals are now bisections...

@bob012345 Yes, the octagon in the very center is what I was looking for. Excellent. :) That's what I think they were trying to do in...

Finally, I think you meant this.

I need to learn to work the computer graphics package. :) If you follow my post 36 carefully, you will get a small regular octagon in...

@bob012345 Please see the additions to post 39. :) and yes, I'm referring to the diagrams of post 23. :) I think post 40 is a...

@bob012345 Read my post 36 again please. I originally had +/- 1/2 as the slope, but changed it to +/- 1 about an hour later when I...

If you look at the diagram by @DaveC426913 in post 23, I think by symmetry that both of those squares have the same area. I'll need to...

This is not, strictly speaking, a discussion of interpretations per se. We often see discussions based on QM as it was understood...

It may be of interest that in computing the ratio of the radius of the circle inscribed in the octagon to the length of a side of the...

@bob012345 ok, but try making the ratio of horizontal and vertical lines with spacing 1,root 2,1 and connecting the points on the sides...

Here is a simple drawing of the regular octagon within the square. If the square has corners at (±1,±1), the outside points are root(2)...
