How do you construct an inscribed triangle?

To draw an inscribed triangle, you first draw your triangle. Then you draw perpendicular bisectors for each side of the triangle. Where they meet is the center of your circle. Then, you take your compass and you draw a circle from the center so that the border of the circle touches each vertex of the triangle.

How do you draw an equilateral triangle in a circle without a compass?

Rotate the ruler until the mark representing the length of the base line touches the perpendicular bisector. If it cannot touch, extend the bisector. Draw the line, then repeat this process to draw the third line. You now have a triangle with three congruent sides and three congruent angles, or an equilateral triangle.
