What is a straight line joining points on a circle?
A straight line joining points on a circle is called a "chord" of that circle. If the line happens to pass through the center of the circle, then it's a "diameter" of that circle. The question asked about "points" on a circle, so two points on the circumference of that circle are being considered. (No line can join more than two points of a circle.)
How do you draw an inscribed rectangle?
Draw two diameters of the circle and join the points where they meet the circumference.
How do you divide a circle with 9cm diameter in three equal parts?
Construct a circle with a 4.5 radius. The circle's circumference is 360 degrees. So mark out 3 by 120 degrees on the circumference and join them to the centre of the circle which will divide the circle into three equal parts.
How do you draw a hexgon?
Compasses.Use a pair of compasses, and draw a circle with a radius of the length you wish the hexagon sides to be.Place the point of the compass at any point on the circumference on the circle and - without changing the distance between the pencil and the point, mark the two places where range of the pencil crosses the circumference. go to the marks you made and make two new marks on the circumference where the range of the pencil crosses it. From one of these marks make a sixth mark.Now, join each mark to its neighbours by a straight line.Protractor.Draw a straight line and make two marks on it, as far apart as you wish the sides of the hexagon to be. At each point, centre the protractor and mark where 60º is from the mark on the line. Join the two marks and measure out the length of the side of the hexagon.Repeat the angle-measuring from the two new points, to get the last two angles of the hexagon. Join each mark to its neighbours by a straight line.
How do you divide a circle in ten pieces?
Mark out 10 by 36 degree arcs around its circumference and then join them up to the center of the circle.

Divide a circle into 5 parts?
The circumference of a circle is 360 degrees so measure out five 72 degree arcs and join them to the centre of the circle.
How do you draw a hexagon with picture and construction?
Let's say you want to draw a hexagon with each side measuring 2 inches. Take a compass and draw a circle with a radius of 2 inches. With the compass set at the same length (2 inches) start with any point on the circle and measure of 2 inches successively around the circumference of the circle. Join the points with straight lines and you got a hexagon.

How do you draw an equalateral triangle around a circle with a compass and straight edge?
Keep compass the same size. Draw circle one. Draw circle two with the center on the edge of circle one. Draw circle three centered on one of the points of intersection between circle one and two. Now the area in between the all three circles where the points of circles intersect should join to make an equalateral triangle. Connect with your straight edge.
If we join any 2 points of a circle we get?
Normally a chord with the diameter of a circle being its biggest chord
Why is the diameter the longest chord?
A chord is a straight line from one point on a circle's circumference to another. Because the largest straight line distance in a circle is the diameter and the diameter is also a chord, the diameter is the longest chord. Join the endpoints of a given chord to the center of the circle to form an isosceles triangle. The triangle inequality then tells that the length of the chord is less than two radii of the circle, i.e., less than the diameter. See related links.
What is the definition of endpoint in math?
A straight line is formed when we join two points say A and B. These both points are called the end-points
What figure do you get if you join two points in cartesian plane?
You get a curve. If you join them along the shortest [Euclidean] distance between them, you get a straight line.
