A 'perfect' circle can not be drawn. For a circle to be perfect it would have to be a series of points that are equidistant from a fixed point. Since a point has no thickness, then anything that you draw to represent a circle, is not actually a circle, but merely a visual representation.. if you draw it so that you can actually see it, then it wouldn't be a perfect circle. And besides, any instrument used to draw or construct a circle will always have some degree of error, even if the error in infinitesimally small.

you cant, no one can, no one ever has, a perfect circle only exists as an idea, in platos world of the forms, we can imagine a perfect circle but they do not exist in nature nor can we create on with a machine. They might look perfect but they are always off by some degree. the closest way to draw one is with a compass, but even with much practice it is hard to make a circle that looks perfect. good luck

Tell me why we can't. So we were saved from instruments when Jesus came? Come on now- God does give us a perfect plan, but that does not mean that we cannot have pianos , guitars, or any instrument in a church service. I am a violinist and a vocalist, and I love praising God with both my voice and my violin. So if we cannot use Psalm 50 as an example of praising God in our services, then a church better not ever mention other passages of scripture- so you are saying that passages like Micah 6:8 should not be used today either? "What does man require of us, to live justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God". In the NT - it says whatever we do do it as unto the Lord- so I am very thankful to be able to praise God with my violin, and that our church has a pianist that worships with his talents as well.

A protractor will draw a perfect circle!

It's called a compass
