a. Divide a Line into a Given Number of Equal Parts (10 equal divisions):
Steps taken are;
i. Draw the given line AB = 100 mm
ii. Draw AC at any convenient angle, and set off from point A, ten equal divisions of the line using a divider or pencil and ruler
iii. Join point 10 to point B, and through the other points, draw lines parallel to 10B by sliding the set-square on any straight edge such as a tee-square shown below. AB is now divided into the required number of equal parts, i.e. 10.
b. Divide a Line in a Given Proportion or Ratio:
For example, divide a line of length 10 cm in the ratio of 3:2:2
