    Draw a circle, then draw a second circle concentric to the first and at half the radius. Divide the outer circle's circumference in segments of 27.69° each. Then draw 13 lines from each mark through the center to the inner circle on the opposite side. Finally, connect the points on the outer circle to the points on the inner circle. Make sure you start out with a large enough circle, and be precise in your measurements or it will be lopsided.

    Draw a circle. Draw another circle, concentric to the first, at half the radius. Then, draw a line through the center, and draw another line through the center angled at 90° from the first line. Then draw two more lines through the center, at 45° degrees. Finally, draw 8 lines from four of the points on the outer circle to the four on the inner circle in between. Draw your concentric circle smaller to play with the star's final shape.
