Earth MeasureIntroduction to Geometry and Geometric Constructions
Use a compass and a straightedge to complete Questions 1 and 2.
1. Construct a flower with 12 petals by following these steps.
a. Open your compass to an appropriate radius length. (You will not change the radius of the
compass for this entire construction.)
b. Construct a circle in the space provided.
c. Place the point of your compass on the circle and draw an arc that goes from one side of the
circle to the other.
d. Place the point of your compass at a point where the arc intersects the circle and draw another
arc from one side of the circle to the other.

e. Repeat step (d) until you have a flower with 6 petals.
f. Place the point of your compass on the circle between 2 petals and draw an arc that goes from
one side of the circle to the other.
g. Place the point of your compass on the circle where the arc intersects the circle and draw an

2. Construct a honeycomb by following these steps.
a. Open your compass to an appropriate radius length. (You will not change the radius of the
compass for this entire construction.)
b. Construct a circle in the space provided. Place the point of your compass on the circle and
construct another circle.
c. Place the point of your compass on the intersection of the two circles and construct another
circle. Repeat this step until you have six petals.
d. Use your straight edge to connect the tips of the petals with line segments to form a hexagon.

e. Construct another six petals by placing the point of your compass on the intersection of two
of the outer circles and drawing another circle. Then, use arcs to complete the construction of
another six petals in the new circle. Use your straight edge to connect the tips of the petals to
form another hexagon.
f. Repeat step (e) all around the original hexagon until you have a honeycomb with 7 hexagons.
g. Color and decorate your honeycomb.
