It typically has a magnetic needle that aligns with the Earth's magnetic field to indicate direction. Users can use a compass to orient themselves and navigate in unfamiliar terrain.
How much degrees does a compass have?
A compass has 360 degrees.
How many degrees from north to south on a compass?
50
How many opposite rays are there in a directional compass and what are they?
there are at least 4, they are N and S, E and W, NW and SE, NE and SW
Instrument with a needle that points north?

What kind of tool is used to assist in drawing circles?

Intermediate directions such as northeast (45 degrees) or southwest (225 degrees) are also commonly used.
