How to draw a circle
Here are the steps to draw a circle:
- Start by sketching a small dot in the center of the paper to represent the center of the circle.
- Using a compass or a round object with a fixed width (such as a pencil and a circular template), draw a light, preliminary circle around the dot.
- Hold the compass or circular object steady, and draw a more definite circle, pressing down harder on the pencil to darken the line.
- If necessary, erase any stray marks or smudges outside the circle.
- Your circle is now complete!

However, from a purely visual perspective there are several ways you can draw a circle that looks perfect. Any mathematical concept like a circle is technically impossible to draw completely accurately.
