Abstract
The article examines, through specific examples, methodological questions related to applying the coordinate method to solving geometric construction problems. Traditionally, construction problems are included in school geometry textbooks because solving such problems helps develop students’ creative abilities and enables problembased revision o f geometry. The coordinate method was introduced into the school geometry curriculum relatively recently. It is used mainly for solving problems that involve proving geometric statements. The application of the coordinate method to construction problems has been partially discussed in. The materials presented in this article can be used by school mathematics teachers-especially those working in schools with advanced mathematics programs-as well as by instructors of geometry-related courses in teacher-training universities
