Answer 5

Do you know how to create equilateral triangles using compass and a straightedge?

Answer 6

@Algorithm are you going to help me? or are you just viewing the question?

Answer 7

Dude this is a geometry question. Can only be solved with a compass.

Answer 8

try using your compass

Answer 9

I agree, please post this is Geometry next time :)

It's been a while since I've done this but this is a good reference.

First, draw a circle with the compass. Next, start at any point with the compass and make marks all the way around at the same length. Now use the straight edge to connect the marks.
