  1. First we open a new document with Inkscape.


  2. Next we will create a circle with the draw circles and ellipses tool button-ellipse.

    Once the circle has been drawn, we are going to change its dimensions in the upper bar of Inkscape to 30 millimeters of horizontal radius and 30 millimeters of vertical radius.

    With what we will obtain a circle of 30 millimeters of radius.
