Here’s how to find center using the square method. #diy #circle #tools #handyman #home

What happens here

Now that the square perfectly encloses the circle, use the speed square as a straight edge. Draw a diagonal line connecting one corner of the square directly to its opposite corner. Repeat this process for the other pair of opposite corners, drawing a second diagonal line. The point where these two diagonal lines precisely intersect is the exact center of the original circle. The presenter then explicitly points to this intersection to highlight the located center.

Goal: Pinpoint the exact center of the circle by finding the intersection of the square's diagonals.

Tools and materials

  • Marker — For drawing the diagonal lines on the whiteboard
  • Speed Square — Used as a straight edge to accurately draw the diagonal lines connecting the corners of the square

Um I respond to all of them for the most part. Um So, yeah. But I I can't thank you guys enough for the 15,000 followers on Instagram. It's absolutely crazy. It's been fun. I enjoy making these videos for you guys, so I'm going to keep making them. Um everyone says I look like Shane Gillis, which I don't see it, but it's funny. So, yeah. But anyways,
