Best Answer

A compass is a tool used to make a circle. It keeps the writing utensil a fixed distance from the center point. It can come in many forms, from a piece of string tied and held in place, to the more traditional compass that looks like two pencils glued together at their erasers. Other models stay on the paper and use a rotating disk to draw a perfect circle.
