On the Constructibility of Real 5th Roots of Rational Numbers with Marked Ruler and Compass

We demonstrate that there are infinitely many real numbers constructible by marked ruler and compass which are unique real roots of irreducible quintic polynomials over the field of rational numbers. This result can be viewed as a generalization of the historical open question of the constructibility by marked ruler and compass of real 5th roots of rational numbers. We obtain our results through marked ruler and compass constructions involving the intersection of conchoids and circles, and the application of number theoretic divisibility criteria.
