Reconstruction of the Windmill Hill (3) 22-06-2003 formation |
|||||
1. | ![]() | Draw a circle. Draw the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | |||
2. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed pentagon (regular 5-sided polygon) of circle 1, pointing up. | |||
3. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the top angular point of pentagon 2, passing through its bottom two angular points. | |||
4. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 four times, to the remaining angular points of pentagon 2. | |||
5. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 3, tangent to circle 1 at the lower side. | |||
6. | ![]() | Copy circle 5 four times, to the centers of circles 4. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed circle of pentagon 2. | |||
8. | ![]() | Draw the five diagonals of pentagon 2, to form the inscribed pentagram. | |||
9. | ![]() | From the center of circle 1, draw the five rays of pentagon 2, to its angular points. | |||
10. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the intersection of the upper (horizontal) diagonal 8 and upper (vertical) ray 9, tangent to circle 7 at the upper side. | |||
11. | ![]() | Copy circle 10 four times, to the remaining (inner) intersections of diagonals 8 and rays 9. | |||
12. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the mutual (inner) intersections of diagonals 8. | |||
13. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the intersection of upper ray 9 and circle 12, tangent to circle 12 at the lower side (passing through the lower (inner) intersection of diagonals 8). | |||
14. | ![]() | Copy circle 13 four times, to the remaining intersections of rays 9 and circle 12. | |||
15. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the lower (inner) intersection of diagonals 8, passing through the upper intersection of the lower two circles 14. | |||
16. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the upper angular point of pentagon 2, tangent to circle 15 at the lower side. | |||
17. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 16 at the upper side. | |||
18. | ![]() | Circles 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 13, 14 and 17 make up the necessary ingredients for the reconstruction. | |||
19. | ![]() | Leave out the relevant parts, not visible in the formation itself. High resolution dwf-file | |||
20. | ![]() | Colouring all areas, corresponding to standing... High resolution dwf-file | |||
21. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, finishes the reconstruction of the Windmill Hill (3) formation of 22-06-2003. High resolution dwf-file | |||
