Which outcome arises when al-Khwarizmi’s quadratic equation solutions, geometrically derived, encounter irrational coefficients during astrolabe design?

💡 Explanation

Inconsistent coefficients propagate through geometrical constructions via algebraic manipulation, influencing angular scales; this causes inaccurate markings on the astrolabe, because minor errors compound, and therefore position calculations drift, rather than causing mechanical failures.
