We establish a simple generalization for the famous theorem of Morley about trisectors in a triangle with a purely synthetic proof using only angle chasing and similar triangles. Furthermore, based on the converse construction, some other extensions of Morley's Theorem are created and proven.
Keywords: Morley's trisector theorem, Morley's triangle, equilateral triangle, perspective triangle.
