If you already know how to navigate all the tabs and functions, I apologize for all the extra detailed instructions.

 1. Draw the circle
 2. Click on the Point tab
 3. Set the Point size to Heavy.
 4. Click on the Draw mid-points button, it is the 4th button that has 4 dots
 5. Click on the Circle
 6. Type in the number of parts the Circle will be divided and press the [Enter] key, 
     you will be entering the number at the bottom left corner of your screen.
     note: You should now have several red dots (Points) on the Circle. If you can't see them go to step 3 and set the Point size to Wide.
 7. Click the Line tab
 8. Click the Draw a line with two points button, it is the 1st button from the left.
 9. Press and hold the [CTRL] and [SHIFT] keys at the same time, then press the letter [C] key, then release all 3 keys.
     note: This sets the snap to the center of a circle.
10. Click the circle 
11. Then click one of the Points, make sure you get a crosshair (+) on the Point before you click,.
      note: You should now have a line from the center of the Circle to the Point.
12. Click on the end of the line that starts near the center of the circle then click another Point.
      Repeat step 12 for all Points.

If you want to break up (divide) the circle into pieces follow these steps.
1. Click the Edit tab.
2. Click the Split button, it is the 9th button from the left, it looks like a line with a dot in the middle.
3. Click the Circle.
4. Click a line where you want to split the circle.
5. Split the rest of the circle at each line.

note: 
    The 1st split of the circle will be at the line and at the opposite side of the circle. 
    If you have an odd number of sections then one of your sections will be spit in the wrong place.
    Erase one of the partial sections, 4th button from the left.
    Then click Slide an endpoint button, 5th from the left.
    Click the end of the circle section to be moved (rotated), then click the line to where the section needs to go.
