    Default Which ruler?
    Can someone please tell me what degree of triangle ruler to use to make circles that have 8 sections/wedges? Thanks.

    It seems to me that would be a 360 degree circle divided into 8 equal sections, or 45 degrees. (360 divided by 8=45). Such a common angle on almost any ruler---no wonder 8 sections are used so much.
