Trisection of a line segment in hyperbolic space

  • In euclidean space, it is possible to bisect a line segment (using a compass and a straightedge). This is also true in hyperbolic space.

  • In euclidean space, it is also possible to trisect a line segment (using a compass and a straightedge).

Is this also true in hyperbolic space? If so, how would it be possible?

If not, is there such proof that shows why hyperbolic line segment trisection is impossible?
