A compass rose is a figure on a map or a nautical chart used to display the orientation of the cardinal directions - north, south, east, and west. It can also be the term for the graduated markings found on the traditional magnetic compass.

To draw a circle with a compass, first set the distance between the point and the pencil of the compass using a ruler. This distance is the radius. Now, place the point on the paper where you want the center of the circle. Spin the compass around the point, lightly dragging the pencil on the paper, and you will have a circle.
To construct a 175-degree angle using a compass, start by drawing a straight line and marking a point A on it. Place the compass point on A and draw a large arc across the line, marking the intersection point as B. Now, without changing the compass width, place the compass point on B and draw another arc above the line. Next, set the compass to a smaller width and draw an arc from A, creating an intersection point with the first arc above the line. Finally, connect point A to this intersection point to create the 175-degree angle.
When standing on the Magnetic North Pole, your compass will only South!
