There are ten amendments in the Bill of Rights. There are many more than ten rights granted or assumed in the Bill of Rights.

There is room for discussion that "due process" may be viewed as a granted right.

There are 27 amendments to the US Constitution. However, only 17 of them qualify as "changes", because the first 10, collectively referred to as the "Bill of Rights", did not come with the Constitution itself.
