Rafael wants to construct a square inscribed in a circle. He divides the circle into six equal arcs and then draws line segments between four of the points. What was the first error Rafael made?

The first error Rafael made was [tex]$\square$[/tex]. A square is constructed by first [tex]$\square$[/tex].



Answer :

Rafael's first error was dividing the circle into six equal arcs. A square inscribed in a circle should have its vertices at every 90 degrees on the circle, not every 60 degrees.

A square is constructed by first dividing the circle into four equal arcs of 90 degrees each.
