Divide the circle into three equal parts with a compass. Dividing a circle into six equal parts and constructing a regular inscribed hexagon

  • 17.10.2019

Division of a circle by six equal parts and the construction of a regular inscribed hexagon is performed using a square with angles of 30, 60 and 90 º and / or a compass. When dividing the circle into six equal parts with a compass from two ends of the same diameter with a radius equal to the radius of the given circle, arcs are drawn until they intersect with the circle at points 2, 6 and 3, 5 (Fig. 2.24). Consistently connecting the points obtained, a regular inscribed hexagon is obtained.

Figure 2.24

When dividing a circle with a compass from the four ends of two mutually perpendicular diameters of the circle, an arc is drawn with a radius equal to the radius of the given circle, until it intersects with the circle (Fig. 2.25). By connecting the points obtained, a dodecagon is obtained.

2.2.5 Division of a circle into five and ten equal parts
and construction of a regular inscribed pentagon and decagon

The division of a circle into five and ten equal parts and the construction of a regular inscribed pentagon and decagon is shown in Fig. 2.26.

Figure 2.26

Half of any diameter (radius) is divided in half (Fig. 2.26 a), point A is obtained. From point A, as from the center, an arc is drawn with a radius equal to the distance from point A to point 1 to the intersection with the second half of this diameter, at point B ( Fig. 2.26 b ). Segment 1 is equal to the chord that subtends the arc, the length of which is equal to 1/5 of the circumference. Making serifs on a circle (Fig. 2.26, in ) radius To, equal to the segment 1B, divide the circle into five equal parts. The starting point 1 is chosen depending on the location of the pentagon. Points 2 and 5 are built from point 1 (Fig. 2.26, c), then point 3 is built from point 2, and point 4 is built from point 5. The distance from point 3 to point 4 is checked with a compass. If the distance between points 3 and 4 is equal to the segment 1B, then the constructions were performed exactly. It is impossible to perform serifs sequentially, in one direction, since errors occur and the last side of the pentagon turns out to be skewed. Consistently connecting the points found, a pentagon is obtained (Fig. 2.26, d).

The division of the circle into ten equal parts is performed similarly to the division of the circle into five equal parts (Fig. 2.26), but first the circle is divided into five parts, starting from point 1, and then from point 6, located at the opposite end of the diameter (Fig. 2.27, a). By connecting all the points in series, they get the correct inscribed decagon (Fig. 2.27, b).

2.2.6 Division of a circle into seven and fourteen equal
parts and the construction of a regular inscribed heptagon and
tetradecagon


The division of a circle into seven and fourteen equal parts and the construction of a regular inscribed heptagon and a fourteen-gon is shown in Fig. 2.28 and 2.29.

From any point on the circle, for example point A , an arc is drawn with a radius of a given circle (Fig. 2.28, a ) to the intersection with the circle at points B and D . Connect the points B and D with a straight line. Half of the resulting segment (in this case, segment BC) will be equal to the chord that subtends the arc, which is 1/7 of the circumference. With a radius equal to the segment BC, notches are made on the circle in the sequence shown in Fig. 2.28, b . By connecting all the points in series, they get a regular inscribed heptagon (Fig. 2.28, c).

The division of the circle into fourteen equal parts is performed by dividing the circle into seven equal parts twice from two points (Fig. 2.29, a).

Figure 2.28

First, the circle is divided into seven equal parts from point 1, then the same construction is performed from point 8 . The constructed points are connected in series with straight lines and get a regular inscribed fourteen (Fig. 2.29, b).

Building an ellipse

The image of a circle in a rectangular isometric projection in all three projection planes is an ellipse of the same shape.

The direction of the minor axis of the ellipse coincides with the direction of the axonometric axis, perpendicular to the plane of projections in which the depicted circle lies.

When constructing an ellipse representing a circle, large diameter, it is enough to construct eight points belonging to the ellipse (Fig. 2.30). Four of them are the ends of the axes of the ellipse (A, B, C, D), and four others (N 1, N 2, N 3, N 4) are located on straight lines parallel to the axonometric axes, at a distance equal to the radius of the depicted circle from the center ellipse.

Sometimes, for the manufacture of stencils, templates, drawings, patterns, crafts, it is necessary to separate for 6 parts.
For example, we needed to make a template for a flower in the form of a six-pointed star.

For those who have forgotten geometry, I remind you that there are two ways to divide a circle into 6 parts:

  1. Via protractor.
  2. Via compass.

1. How to divide a circle into 6 parts using a protractor

Dividing a circle with a protractor is very easy.

We draw a line connecting the center and any point (for example, point 1) on the circle. From this line, using a protractor, we set aside an angle of 60, 120, 180 degrees. We put points on the circle (for example, points 2, 3, 4) We unfold the protractor and divide the other part of the circle in the same way.

2. How to divide a circle into 6 parts using a compass

It happens that there is no protractor at hand. Then the circle can be divided into 6 equal parts using a compass.

We draw a circle, for example, with a radius of 5 cm (red circle). Without changing the radius, we transfer the leg of the compass to the circle (point 1) and draw another circle. We get two points of intersection of the black and red circles 6 and 2.

We move the leg of the compass to point 2 and draw a circle again. We get point 3.

Move the leg of the compass to point 3. Draw a circle again.

Thus, we continue to divide the circle until we divide it into 6 equal parts.

Dividing a circle into equal parts

Division into 3 parts(Fig. 12, a). From the end of the diameter of the circle, an arc is drawn with a radius R equal to the radius of the circle. The arc forms two necessary points on the circle. The third point is at the opposite end of the diameter.

Division into 4 and 8 parts. When dividing the circle into 4 parts, a compass and a ruler will help, with the help of which it is necessary to draw two mutually perpendicular diameters (Fig. 12, b). If we draw one diameter and from one of its ends describe an arc slightly larger than the radius R, and draw another arc of the same radius from the opposite end of the diameter, then by connecting the points of their intersection with a straight line (which will pass through the center), we will obtain a second diameter perpendicular to the first. The intersection points of perpendicular diameters with a circle divide it into 4 equal parts.

To divide the circle into 8 equal parts (Fig. 12, in) it is necessary to construct two pairs of mutually perpendicular diameters.

Division into 5 parts. Dividing a circle into 5 parts can be done in several ways. The first method (Fig. 12, G) involves the use of a compass and ruler. First, in a known way, it is necessary to draw two mutually perpendicular diameters. After that the radius R to be divided in half: extreme point crossing the horizontal diameter, it is necessary to draw an arc of radius R and through two points formed at the intersection of this arc with a circle, draw a straight line - it will divide the horizontal line of radius R in half. From the division point (? R) draw an arc with a radius r(equal to the distance from the point? R to the intersection point of the circle with the vertical diameter). This arc will intersect the second half of the horizontal diameter at the point With. A segment equal to the distance from a point With to the point of intersection of the circle with the vertical diameter, will correspond to the side of the desired pentagon inscribed in the circle. It is necessary to set the compass to a value equal to the length of this segment, and draw an arc of a given radius from the upper intersection point of the circle with a vertical diameter - the point of its intersection with the circle will be the next vertex of the pentagon. From the vertex found, you need to draw another arc of a given radius - this will be the third vertex of the pentagon, from which, in turn, you will need to draw the next arc, and so on until the circle is divided into 5 equal parts. If after that we draw the next five arcs of a given radius, but starting from the lower point of intersection of the circle with the vertical diameter, then the circle will be divided into 10 equal parts. In addition, in fig. 12, G, segment SO on a horizontal diameter corresponding to 1/10 of the circle, that is, if 10 arcs are sequentially drawn on the circle with a radius corresponding to the value of the segment SO, the circle is also divided into 10 equal parts.

In the second method (Fig. 12, d) on the diameter of the circle, using the already known technique, it is necessary to find a point that divides the radius R in half. Draw a straight line from this point until it intersects with the end of the diameter (points With). Then from the point R/2 draw an arc with a radius equal to? R, until it intersects with the drawn line at the point E. Further with a compass from the point With draw an arc with a radius equal to the segment ce, until it intersects the circle at points BUT and AT. Line segment AB- face of a pentagon. Now it remains to draw from the points BUT and AT arcs with a radius equal to the value of the segment AB to sequentially divide the circle into 5 parts.

There is also a way to divide a circle into 5 parts using a protractor. to the radius R circle, you need to attach a protractor, build a central angle of 72 ° (360: 5 \u003d 72) and draw a straight line from the center to the point of its intersection with the circle. The resulting point must be connected to the intersection point of the radius R on a circle - this segment will be the side of the pentagon. By drawing arcs from both points with a radius corresponding to the length of this segment, you can divide the circle into 5 parts.

Division into 6 and 12 parts(Fig. 12, e). From the points of intersection of the circle with the vertical diameter, two arcs are drawn, the radius of which is equal to the radius of the circle. The intersection of arcs on a circle forms points that are successively connected by chords. The result is a hexagon inscribed in a circle. To divide the circle into 12 parts, the same construction is made, but only on two mutually perpendicular diameters.

Division into 7 parts(Fig. 12, well). From the end of any diameter, an auxiliary arc is drawn with a radius R. Through the points of its intersection with the circle, a chord is drawn equal to the side of a correctly inscribed triangle (as in Fig. 12, a). Half of the chord is equal to the side of the heptagon inscribed in the circle. Now it is enough to successively lay a few arcs on the circle with a radius equal to half the chord to divide the circle into 7 parts.

Division into any number of parts(Fig. 13). In this case, the circle is divided into 9 parts.

Two mutually perpendicular straight lines are drawn through the center of the circle. One of the diameters CD, divided by a ruler into the required number of equal parts (in this case 9), the points are numbered. Further from the point D draw an arc with a radius equal to the diameter of the given circle (2 R), until it intersects with a perpendicular line AB. From the points of intersection BUT and AT conduct rays, but in such a way that they pass only through even or only through odd (as in this case) numbers. When crossing with a circle, the rays form points that divide the circle into the desired number of parts (in this case, 9).

Finding the center of the arc and determining the size of the radius

An arc of a circle is given, the center and radius of which are unknown.

To determine them, you need to draw two non-parallel chords (Fig. 2.15, a) and set up perpendiculars to the midpoints of the chords (Fig. 2.15, b). Centre O arc is at the intersection of these perpendiculars.

Pairings

When performing machine-building drawings, as well as when marking workpieces in production, it is often necessary to smoothly connect straight lines with arcs of circles or an arc of a circle with arcs of other circles, i.e. perform pairing.

Pairing called a smooth transition of a straight line into an arc of a circle or one arc into another.

To build mates, you need to know the value of the radius of the mates, find the centers from which the arcs are drawn, i.e. interface centers(Fig. 2.16). Then you need to find the points at which one line passes into another, i.e. connection points. When constructing a drawing, mating lines must be brought exactly to these points. The point of conjugation of the arc of a circle and a straight line lies on a perpendicular lowered from the center of the arc to the mating line (Fig. 2.17, a), or on a line connecting the centers of mating arcs (Fig. 2.17, b). Therefore, to construct any conjugation by an arc of a given radius, you need to find interface center and point (points) conjugation.
