Which limitation appears when using medieval Islamic algebra based geometric compass constructions using only straightedge and compass?

💡 Explanation

Certain irrational numbers are inconstructible algebra, limiting geometric solutions to equations because straightedge-and-compass constructions only intersect lines/circles. Therefore, duplicating the cube, needing a cubic equation solution, is impossible rather than solving quartics.
