Can a compass construct circles?

The only way a compass can be used to create a circle is if you draw round it, because a compass is actually a navigational instrument which shows direction. If you're out in the woods, for example, you use a compass to show you which direction you need to head in. A pair of compasses can be used to construct, or draw, a circle of any size, up to the maximum reach of the "arms".

Why is there a need to use a straightedge and compass to construct geometric figures?

The compass is used to measure angles. The straightedge is used to draw a straight line. The two items together, are used to measure and draw angles and lines in geometric drawings.

How do you construct 80 degree angle using compass and ruler?

Draw a point, and a long straight line through it. Put the centre of the compass over the point, with north on the compass (or zero degrees) on the line. Then draw a second line out from the point at 80 degrees on the compass. You'll then have a 80 degree angle between the lines. It's usually a trick that teachers decide to do on their pupils. A compass is what you use to find north and a pair of compasses is used to draw circles.

How do you use a ruler and compass to construct an equilateral triangle with sides of lingth 6 cm?
