To divide a circle into 10 equal parts, you can either use your compass or protractor for the division. Here I’ll be explaining using a protractor:
Step 1: Draw the given circle
Step 2: Draw a diameter to the circle. That is a line from one part of the circumference to the opposite side passing through the center of the circle.
Step 3: Use your protractor to mark 36o intervals starting from the radius. That means on your compass, you’ll mark 36o, 72o, 108o, 144o, 180o. With
Step 4: From these points, draw a straight line to touch the circumference, through the center, and to the opposite side of the circumference. Note; depending on the size of the circle and the protractor used, your point might not directly be on the circumference. Make sure the lines dividing the circle touch the circumference.
