2.Next, let's try drawing an accurate circle. Although you can draw an accurate circle using the mouse, it is faster to draw a neater circle by entering coordinate values that will result in an accurate circle through the properties.
From the Properties view, edit the values of Height and Width so that they are equal.
The ellipse is now an exact circle.
