You are an archaeologist excavating an ancient Egyptian site. You are most excited when you discover a chest containing various building tools and a rope circle (pictured above).
There are 12 knots in the rope - evenly spaced.
You and your friends all agree that the rope circle must have been used for planning or measuring in some way (one of them even thinks she saw a similar piece of rope in a hieroglyph - although it may have been a triangle?)
Can you explain how the rope circle could be used in planning or building?
