I love when botany and geometry come together in a lesson. For this geometry lesson, we continue with 6-division of a circle, but as opposed to using the 6-fold symmetry, we will concentrate on the triangle. Measure your radius to 9 cm or 3.5 inches. Divide your circle into 6 equal parts by setting your compass to the circumference and swinging the compass to make an arc on either side crossing the circle. Then place your compass point onto the arc and swing again. In this way you can divide the circle into 6 parts. Label them 1-6 and then connect every other point.
The sides of your triangle should measure 16 cm. Make 2cm divisions along each side of the triangle. Now connect each point to the center of the circle. Already this is a beautiful geometric design. Next draw your calla lily within the triangle. We chose to color our calla lily using Lyra colored pencils, but this is optional. We did a little research online to find colors and patterns we liked and each chose one to copy.
