Answer 4

If you are talking about this type of compass:

Then that's probably not needed.

Answer 5

ohh u r right then but for what construction

Answer 6

I'm assuming for geometry.
for example you can use a string and a pencil to make a circle.

Answer 7

not exactly a string

Answer 8

what ingredient is NOT needed to make a ?

lol

Answer 9

that what it says i was confuse with the question

Answer 10

the term "construction" here s being used in a certain context according to the material that you are studying.

and it appears to be geometry

Answer 11

so id say a compass is not a needed tool, convenient yes, but no needed

Answer 12

You can trace around the compass to draw a circle technically :)

Answer 13

even the string y is it neede u can make a circle from the compass

Answer 15

what type of compass are you referring to Asma ?
Not a navigational one, right ?

Answer 16

but i prefer the string is not needed y would u use is in geometry

Answer 17

and yes I'm doing Geometry...

Answer 18

no not a navigational an ordinary

Answer 19

That ? ^^^

Answer 20

no i dont think so

Answer 21

Answer 22

ohh u may be right

Answer 23

well, if you have a compass - then you don't need a string.

Answer 24

and yes I'm doing Geometry...

Answer 25

String is it?

Answer 26

but the string is no needed in this construction

Answer 27

If you don't have a compass, you can use a string to get by.

Answer 28

a string can create an ellipse; whereas a compass cant

Answer 29

but how it will not be exactly like a compass

Answer 30

which is not need to do math; pencil paper calculator :)

Answer 31

and yes I'm doing Geometry...

Answer 32

ya ofcourse

Answer 33

and yes I'm doing Geometry...
