Geometrography studies the complexity of ruler-and-compass constructions. According to our knowledge, so far the only remarkable work in this field is by �. Lemoine. We survey his method and present another method based on statistical modelling. We compare these methods by studying the complexity of certain constructions of a perpendicular to a line and a regular pentagon. A purpose of this paper is to show that geometrography has potential to enrich geometry and graphics education in school. The latter, statistical, method also provides tools for a more advanced analysis of error propagation through geometric transformation.
