How to divide a circle in 12 equal parts?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking for a method to equally divide a circle into 12 sections, which involves calculating angles and possibly using a compass and straightedge for drawing.

Answer

First draw a circle, then draw one diameter. At the center and using the diameter as the base, draw another diameter at a 30° angle and repeat this four more times.

The final answer is to first draw a circle, then draw one diameter. Next, at the center and using the diameter as the base, draw one more diameter at a 30° angle. Repeat this four more times. The circle is now divided into 12 equal parts.

More Information

Splitting a circle into equal parts is a common task in geometry and art, such as for creating clock faces or mandalas.

Tips

Make sure the angles are as precise as possible. Each section should be 30° since 360° divided by 12 equals 30°.
