What is the use of a divider in geometry?

Answer 1

Explain the use of divider in geometry.

• Dividers are one of the most basic types of mathematical tools.
• Dividers are made up of a linked pair of legs, each with a sharp point, and have a V-shaped form that resembles that of compasses.
• The divider's distance can be adjusted and can be used to measure and compare lengths.
• The dividers can be used for geometric activities such as scribing circles, as well as taking and moving measurements.
